Twitter reacts to Ishant Sharma's horror show
Looks like Ishant Sharma has played his last ODI match for a while
Defending 303 runs, India, inspired by MS Dhoni’s 121-ball 139*, looked well on their way to registering an important victory against Australia in the third ODI between the two teams at the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium, Mohali. Ishant Sharma, in a span of six balls, turned the match upside down by conceding 30 runs, all off James Faulkner’s bat.
Left stunned by the sudden over turn of events, Twitterati, as they always do, outraged and made fun of India’s self proclaimed spearhead Ishant Sharma.
Positives for Indian fans: - Dhoni and Kohli in awesome form. - Ravi Jadeja's bowling. - Ishant Sharma will never play ODIs again.

Awkward moment when you realise Ishant Sharma and Hashim Amla have the same jersey numbers. #IndVaus

After Sachin announced his retirement, Yuvraj played a blinder as a tribute. After Ajit Agarkar retired, Ishant did the same.

The worst hit by Ishant Sharma's performance today will be English fans, who cant comprehend just what happened in the CT final. #IndvsAus

Ppl are blaming Ishant Sharma for the terrific over he bowled. But who gave him the over on the first place?

In Ishant Sharma we mistrust #IndvsAus

Dhoni: "Virat, can you please execute your responsibilities as a vice-captain?" | "Sure, Mahi. Abe Ishant, M@#$#@$ C#@$#@$ @#$#@$" #Mohali

Half expect Dhoni to give last over to Ishant Sharma… #IndvsAus

@anandj_ @lk_karthik But a troubling fact is that "I, Ishant Sharma" #anagrams to "Shit! Narasimha"

Ishant Sharma reminds us again how one fellow from Delhi can ruin everything the rest of India achieves…

Eoin Morgan and Ravi Bopara would also be getting lots of abuses from their countrymen today. #Ishant #CT13
