Twitter reacts as India lose a Test match at home after 5 years

It was a day to forget for the Indians as Virat Kohli & co under-performed in every department - from missing catches to taking meaningless reviews, to lose their first match in 20 Tests, in forgettable fashion. Steven O'Keefe picked it up from where he left in the 1st innings and picked 6 wickets.

A century by skipper Steve Smith and a 12-wicket match haul by left-arm spinner Steve O'Keefe helped Australia win the first Test of the series by 333 runs only on the third day at Pune. While Australia broke their 13-year winless streak in India, India’s undefeated 19-match streak came to an end.

Brief scores: Australia 260 (Renshaw 68, Starc 61, Umesh Yadav 4/32) & 285 ( Smith 109, Ashwin 4/119) India 105 (Vijay 64, O’ Keefe 6/34) & 107 all out (Pujara 31, O’Keefe 6/34, Lyon 3/53 ) 

When Indian fans missed the Fab 4! :(

This is humiliating!

True, should've listened to KP! :(

When you run out of reviews!

Every Indian fan right now!

Looks like he never left! :)

Point!

Seriously!
