Australia vs India 2018: Mitchell Johnson Hopes For A Rain On Final Day, Gets Trolled

Surprisingly, Mitchell Johnson has become the often headliner in the series for his comments on the game. Earlier, he was harsh on Virat Kohli and later admired the knocks of Cheteshwar Pujara by calling him a run-machine. Meanwhile, he asks Australians to survive on Day 4 with rain on the forecast for Day 5. Certainly, it has drawn the attention of fans.

The Indian fans trolled Mitchell Johnson for his optimistic tweet while few questioned the state of the Australian cricket from being the rulers to searching for the ways to survive. Further, he went on to term that Australia has got the chance to win as well.

Australia are on for a victory – Mitchell Johnson

In his early tweet, Mitchell Johnson boosted his boys to save the Day 4 while rain might save on Day 5. Later, while replying to fans, he quoted that Australia can win the game if Cummins score 120 and Nathan Lyon gets 90-or-odd.

”C’mon, get through the day lads. To which fan tweeted, This is not the Australian way Mitch! It’ll be like “Cmon boys only 180 needed to win let’s do it”, To be honest I haven’t seen Aussies blocking and hoping for rains till date. How’s this one then, Cummins will get about 120* & Lyon 90ish* Australia for the win tomorrow,” Mitchell Johnson tweeted.

Well, it was the day that belonged to India but the way Pat Cummins hung in the middle pushed things for the final day of the match. Initially, India added few more runs to overnight score to put 399 on the board for Australia.

In reply, Australian batsmen once again have bitten the dust, as they were outclassed by Indian bowlers. Ravindra Jadeja was the wrecker-in-chief with 3 wickets with 3 wickets while Bumrah and Shami picked a couple.

Here are the few tweets:

Mitch, cricket is supposed to be a gentleman 'S game. Gotta give credit to the team who plays better. It will also boost your folks to work harder, what do you think?

Always thought Aussies were a brace cricketing nation. Never expected them to wish for a Rain to Save a test. Better compete and lose than wish for Rain!
