South Africa lost to India by 6 wickets today. This was the Proteas’ third defeat in as many games. Meanwhile, India, riding on Rohit Sharma’s unbeaten century opened their account in the World Cup.
The match was quite eventful. So obviously Twitter had a lot to say.
This is quite sad, actually!

That was some batting from the Hitman.
A wonderful, mature innings from Rohit Sharma. Great assessment of the situation and seeing India through to the win in the end, a hallmark of top players @ImRo45 . A well begun World Cup campaign for Team India #INDvSA pic.twitter.com/Hmul57c4BO
