Twitter Reactions – Umpire Vineet Kulkarni Lambasted after 1st T20I: India and South Africa commenced the “Paytm Freedom Series” with an exciting T20 encounter yesterday. The brilliance of Rohit Sharma was overshadowed by the blitz of J.P Duminy who helped his team to chase down the commanding target of 199 set by India.

However, the man who became the centre of all the wrong attention was Indian umpire, Vineet Kulkarni. He drew the ire of furious Indian fans for his irresponsible decisions he gave in the match.

JP Duminy, who stole the show last night was wrongly given not out by Vineet Kulkarni twice! First time when Duminy was at the tender score of 5 and second time again when he was at 33. Ironically for Vineet Kulkarni, Duminy went on to crack a match-winning half century which sealed off an exciting victory for South Africa.

Indian Captain MS Dhoni also did not hold himself back in expressing his disappointment in the post-match conference.

He said, “If the decisions don’t go in your favour, that puts pressure and I thought we were unfortunate to not get Duminy.”

The twitter went ablaze soon after the match got over. Kulkarni was not spared at all. Dejected fans left no stones unturned in criticizing as well as trolling the Indian umpire.

Here are some of the sarcastic yet pungent tweets aimed at the man who became the culprit of the match.
