Here is how Twitter reacted to the incident:
#DCvRR kuldeep yadav needs a baby sitter and someone to keep telling him that he is the best. He does not have the mental strength to cope when things become tough. He just crumbles … So won't be surprised if he does not make it to team India. Yuzi is exactly opposite.
