Cricket fans flood social media with memes on day two of India-England third test match
Twitter is on fire on Matchday 2 of the ongoing India-England Third Test match at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Interspersed with live tweets and expert commentary on the microblogging platform, there are also a number of hilarious memes and funny posts from cricket fans. As with other cricket matches, this one also sparked a wave of memes on social media – despite India having a dismal start on day two as Joe Root and Jack Leach completely dominated the batsmen of the hosts. Only Rohit Sharma (66) managed to find a little rhythm.
After taking the lead for the first leg, India quickly took a quick wicket against England. The visitors started their second round badly, with Axar Patel sacking Zak Crawley and Jonny Bairstow on Day 2.
Axar Patel’s performance received praise from several quarters – including a congratulatory tweet from Congress Secretary General Priyanka Gandhi Vadra’s son Raihan Rajiv Vadra.

India and England were tied 1-1 ahead of the third of four matches which could decide which team will make the final of the Test World Championship against New Zealand.
The reconstructed Ahmedabad Stadium can accommodate 110,000 fans but only opened 55,000 seats in its first international match due to the coronavirus pandemic.
