India vs South Africa | Twitter reacts to Raina and Bhuvneshwar's comeback performance in first T20I
From Suresh Raina's brilliant return to the squad to Manish Pandey's below average batting display to Bhuvnehswar Kumar getting back his mojo, the Twitterati had a field day as India continued their winning run in the T20Is. South Africa's all familiar choking in the end added further spice to it.
Brief Scores : India 203/5 (Shikhar Dhawan 72, Manish Pandey 29*; Junior Dala 2/47, Andile Phehlukwayo 1/16) beat South Africa 175/9 (Reeza Hendricks 70, Farhaan Behardien 39; Bhuvneshwar Kumar 5/24, Jaydev Unadkat 1/33) by 28 runs.

Good Guy, Bhuvi!
Bhuvi is like the new age Dravid. Go out there, do what the team needs, nothing else matters. No big smiles, no big celebrations.

Wait, What?
If is commentator, how would he explain Bhuvneshwar kumar's bowling figure of 04-24-05
— अल्ला यादव (@alla_yadav)
RG: Bhuvneshwar kumar gave only 4 runs in 5 overs and got 24 wickets for India.
The only way South Africa take wickets now
I think the only way South Africa can win is to get Steve Bucknor as the Umpire and ask Indian batsmen to wear Sachin masks! 😁😁

This is where South Africa lost the match
South Africa don't have belief at the moment that they can beat India. That's where they have lost it.
