Kohli always had a problem with Pujara's inability to rotate strike. This must have been communicated, so poor pujara was looking for the run & kohli sold him a dummy 😎 https://t.co/44I49ZSWxe

Anderson removes openers, Kohli removes Pujara.

Kohli's call? It sure felt like that. Worst possible start to the game for India. 15-3 and the ball is moving around like crazy. This does not look good. #INDvsENG

If you are an Indian batsman today, you’d think the world had conspired against you. And if you are #Pujara, it feels even worse. 😜😅 #ENGvIND

However, there was no lack of tweets which blamed Pujara for his run-out. One of the reasons cited was Pujara's run outs in the past. Check the tweets below:

All of a sudden so called Twitter experts r feeling sad fr Pujara ..... Lol u will see same ppl criticisizing nd abusing Pujara if he fails to score in next innings or next test 😂 Yahi reality hai Indian fans ki ....

Well done #Pujara ... you tend to do mistakes like this if your score is just 1 after playing 24 balls

Better scenario would have been scoring 24 in 24 balls and then getting out - team's score would have been 38/3 instead of 15/3#LordsTest #INDvENG #INDvsENG #ENGvsIND

As the run out video is available to all, one can decide for their own, as to who was at fault. Recently, Virat Kohli was also criticised when a picture of Anushka Sharma  and the Indian Captain was shared by the official handle of Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), which had posted a picture with ‘Team India’.

But then, with Virat and his team members, stood Anushka in the front row and that left all the fans thinking whether Anushka is a part of Indian cricket team too! India are already 1-0 down in the five match Test series vs England and a loss in the second Test would make things difficult for the Indian team. In other news, Arjun Tendulkar, the son of the legendary Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, was seen lending a helping hand to the Lord’s ground-staff, where India and England are playing the second Test match.
