IND vs WI: "Can’t Even Chase 115 Without Rohit, Kohli"– Twitter Slams India After Win In 1st ODI

Fans on Twitter reacted after Indian Cricket Team defeated West Indies by 5 wickets in the first game of the three-match ODI series at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown to take a lead of 1-0 in the series. 

India opted to bowl first and it was a stupendous effort from their end as they bundled out West Indies for just 114 runs. Kuldeep Yadav was the pick of the bowlers with his figures of 4/6 and was supported well by his spin twin Ravindra Jadeja, who took three wickets as well.

Hardik Pandya took the new ball with debutant Mukesh Kumar and they both chipped in with wickets upfront before spinners did the job to put their team in the bossing position in the first game of the series. 

With less total to chase, India tried to do some experiments as they send out Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill to open the innings. The pitch looked difficult to bat as Indian batters kept losing wickets at regular intervals and saw 5 batters getting out even in small chase. The keeper-batter seemed to be batting on a different pitch as he smashed a wonderful half-century. 

Ravindra Jadeja (16*) then along with skipper Rohit Sharma (12*), who came to bat at No.7, then finished the game for their side inside 23 overs to win the game by a margin of 5 wickets and take an early lead in the series.

#INDvsWI India win by 5 wickets !
But this win once again, like for the past two years of Dravid-Rohit combo has left more questions than answers!
Why No Samson?
Why Ishan in the middle?
SKY 19th successive failure
Why No Axar?
Why 4 seamers?

India wins the first ODI by 5 wickets. It shouldn't have taken us to win this cakewalk-like game by losing 5 wickets. That is another reason why we should have decided to bat first. Anyway, a win is a win. #WIvsIND pic.twitter.com/97dpn0ZOsM

BCCI should've arranged a Team India A vs Team India B series among the Indian players for better practice. Make it Team Virat vs Team Rohit for high viewership.

Rohit and Virat sacrificed their batting numbers. And nobody availed of the opportunity in what should ideally have been a cakewalk for India in the chase #IndvWI

Look at their performance against minnows.
Chasing 115 against Club level bowling and already 5 down for 97.
This team is full of Frauds.
All runs came on home tracks against mediocre bowling attacks.
Already lost Odi series against Aus , Bang , NZ , SAF.#IndvsWI pic.twitter.com/qJLqI6Sk4A
