Twitter goes crazy as Dhoni goes hammer and tongs against England.
Updated : Sep 30, 2017, 11:20 AM IST
Any routine practice match, especially on a working day, may not witness a big crowd, but the one featuring the visiting England team on Tuesday was a special one. It was the final time that India's most successful skipper Dhoni was seen leading the side although it's an 'A' team.
Mahi didn't disappoint too scoring an unbeaten 68 off 40 balls, while hitting two sixes and eight fours. Asked to field first, the hosts scored 304 for four in their stipulated quota of overs while the maverick captain blasted 23 runs off the last over of the innings bowled by Chris Woakes.
Here are the best Twitter reactions of the day:

A glimpse of vintage Dhoni with bat in hand. Probably he is saying, "Bohut ho gaya captaincy, ab Dangal hoga." #IndAvEng #INDAVSENG
