Twitter reacts to Ashwin's magical spell and Ian Gould's 'Bucknor'-ness as India end day 1 on top
Ravichandran Ashwin led the way for India with a brilliant five-wicket haul as West Indies were bowled out for 196. KL Rahul then put his team on the driving seat with an impeccable knock of 75. The Twitter went gaga over Ashwin and India's dominance, and here are some of the best tweets.
