In the time Gambhir has spent in the pavilion he could have watched biopics of the remaining batsmen in the team#INDvNZ

People score runs, Jadeja batting for declaration has just scored -5. #Respect
— Nikhil Popat 🏏 (@CricCrazyNIKS) October 9, 2016

5 Runs taken off India's score for Jadeja running in the danger area on the pitch. Sir Jadeja can do anything.

Kohli was laughing on mistimed hit by Rohit :P

Rahane used everything- his bat, helmet, forearm guard.
He really deserved his 200#INDvNZ pic.twitter.com/b7J6xIXWJV

Kohli and Rahane currently the only things on earth harder to remove than Trump. #indvnz

Best part about Rahane's knock was how he dominated after negotiating the tough period (barrage of bouncers) #INDvNZ
— Sarang Bhalerao (@bhaleraosarang) October 9, 2016

Rahane missed double ton though he was struggling against bouncers still stood their patiently & showed the World How to play Test Cricket!

Superb last-minute adjustment on that shot by Rahane. #indvsnz

Other people have Changes of rupees, Virat kohli has only 100 ! 😉#Indvsnz
— Freaky Jai (@iJaiDeep_) October 9, 2016

Kohli-Rahane probably the best batting pair in Test cricket right now. (Talking about effectiveness as a pair, not necessarily individually)
— Shankster (@CrickeTennis) October 9, 2016

Outstanding display of class & temperament by @imVkohli to get his 2nd Test double ton. #whataplayer #leadingfromthefront #indvsnz @BCCI

2016 May:

Kohli Never scored Test double Century!

2016 October:

Kohli become first Indian captain to score two Double Centuries
— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) October 9, 2016

The runs finally flowing in this series, but it's wonderful to see so many people at the ground. The small-centre strategy is paying off
— Sambit Bal (@sambitbal) October 9, 2016

Jeetan Patel scalps Virat Kohli.
Wonder who was more tired #INDvNZ

Ahmed Shehzad spotted in the stands in Indore. #indvsnz
— jigar mehta (@jigsactin) October 9, 2016

Virat and Kohli will ensure India doesn't bat again in this match.
Gambhir must be wondering how to blame Dhoni now for this.#INDvNZ
— TheGoanPatiala (@TheGoanPatiala) October 9, 2016

Kohli & Rahane made sure that Rohit Sharma had his pads on for a record time. With all his talent, it had to come off the field #indvsnz
— Cricket Bakchod (@AllTimeBakchod) October 9, 2016

Looking forward to Virat Kohli's biopic.
— Trendulkar (@Trendulkar) October 9, 2016

Take a bow Virat! India is proud to have you play for the nation @BCCI. A Class apart! 200 and counting #INDvNZ #Indore
— Anjum Chopra (@chopraanjum) October 9, 2016

Double ton for Virat Kohli! Another box ticked, with daddy tons. Well done Virat. Been a superb knock, in full control of the proceedings.
— Nikhil Popat 🏏 (@CricCrazyNIKS) October 9, 2016

DOUBLE CENTURY for Virat Kohli the tough part of being Sportsman is you need prove again and again..

Kohli is Doing that with the ease!
— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) October 9, 2016

At a press conference someone asked Virat why there were no centurions in this series and he gives them a double. #IndvNZ
— TheGoanPatiala (@TheGoanPatiala) October 9, 2016

They say Kohli is next Sachin & Rahane is next Dravid. Perfect time for Kohli to declare when Rahane is on 194 and take revenge. #indvsnz
— Cricket Bakchod (@AllTimeBakchod) October 9, 2016

Kohli is cheat code in cricket.
#IndvsNZ
— Rohit (@Rohittinkoo) October 9, 2016

Think about Rohit Sharma - poor guy has been padded since a day! #indvsnz
— . (@shan_daar) October 9, 2016

I guess This is the longest time Rohit Sharma with pads on.. #indvsnz
— Mohanaraj Mahi (@MohanarajMahi) October 9, 2016

I feel bad for Rohit Sharma. He is padded up since yesterday's post lunch session.#INDvsNZ
— Jaanvi 🏏 (@imVjaanvi) October 9, 2016

Thank god Wasim Akram isn't there in the commentary box. It would have been "Rihani" all the way. #IndvNZ
— TheGoanPatiala (@TheGoanPatiala) October 9, 2016

Since Rahane's debut, only twice an Indian batsman has hit 4 sixes in a Test inns. Ajinkya Rahane is the batsman on both occasions. #INDvNZ
— Sampath 🏏 (@SAMPATHB24) October 9, 2016

Henry is giving tough time for Rahane but Kohli nicely took the strike to play Henry over and now taking him on..
— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) October 9, 2016

You will never see this in 50 overs or T20 cricket. Short balls into the body, to rattle a class player & the fight is still on. Must watch.
— Sanjay Manjrekar (@sanjaymanjrekar) October 9, 2016

Of all the Rahane hundreds, he has struggled the most here in Indore. Tastes sweeter still no doubt... #IndvNZ
— Chetan Narula (@chetannarula) October 9, 2016

Well played, Ajinkya Rahane. Man for all seasons, man for all reasons. Massive respect for the way he fought in this innings. #IndvsNZ

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) October 9, 2016

Ajinkya Rahane..

Plays T20..
Plays ODI..
Plays Test..
Plays in any position..
Plays in any Condition..

The Real asset for the team
— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) October 9, 2016

Both Virat Kohli and Ajinkya Rahane have shared some special partnerships already. Hopefully we will see a lot more of them together ahead.
— Nikhil Popat 🏏 (@CricCrazyNIKS) October 9, 2016

I want to see Rahane scoring more centuries so that I get a glimse of Rahane's wife. So cute. #indvsnz
— Cricket Bakchod (@AllTimeBakchod) October 9, 2016

Captain sher to vice captain Savaa sher ! You can dent the wall but you can't get past it.. You da man @ajinkyarahane88 Top 💯 #INDvNZ
— jatin sapru (@jatinsapru) October 9, 2016

Took a single against a spinner on 98 to face the next over from a fast bowler on 99. That pretty much sums up Ajinkya Rahane. 👏👏
— Sanjay Manjrekar (@sanjaymanjrekar) October 9, 2016

Rahane has scored a century and nobody on my TL has praised Rahul Dravid as of yet. I have seen it all #indvsnz
— Cricket Bakchod (@AllTimeBakchod) October 9, 2016

Not a single shot in the air by Kohli thus far..can't b easy to drive a Ferrari at 60kmph even when the roads are deserted. What discipline!
— Aakash Chopra (@cricketaakash) October 9, 2016

*Phone Rings*
Rahane's Gf: Hello, Rahane Hai?#SirJadeja: No. Batting Karne Gaya Hai, 2 Din Baad Call Karna. ;)#INDvNZ #INDvsNZ
— Sir Ravindra Jadeja (@SirJadejaaaa) October 9, 2016

Partnership of 258 between @imVkohli & @ajinkyarahane88 things looking pretty desperate for New Zealand. #indvnz #lookingdownthebarrel
— Tom Moody (@TomMoodyCricket) October 9, 2016

First 400 at home since 2013 for India. Not surprising given centuries from the top order. Box ticked. Now for consistency.
— Nikhil Popat 🏏 (@CricCrazyNIKS) October 9, 2016

The last time when India crossed 400 runs at home, Manmohan Singh Ji was still the PM. देर से आए लेकिन दुरुस्त आए। 😂 #IndvNZ

Kohli and Rahane playing role of Ram Lakshman in this year's Ramleela.
— EngiNerd. (@mainbhiengineer) October 9, 2016

Hotstar seriously needs to photoshop Virat & Rahane's head with Sachin & Dravid respectively. Durga Puja gift for 90s kid #indvsnz
