Women's World Cup 2017: England beat India to snatch winner's crown, here is how Twitterati reacts

Indian eves snatched defeat from the jaws of victory as hosts England won the ICC Women’s World Cup final by 9 runs, at Lord’s on Sunday. Chasing a tricky total of 229, Indian middle-order collapsed like a pack of cards, being bowled out for 219 in 48.4 overs.

It was a case of so near yet so far for the Indian team who would be devastated having come within a sniffing distance of a historic triumph.

The last seven wickets fell for a mere 28 runs in 6.5 overs as India were cruising along at 191 for 3 at one stage before Veda Krishnamurthy’s (35) atrocious shot selection brought the Englishwomen back into the game.

From Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Bollywood actress Shraddha Kapoor, all the celebrities through out the country has already taken to micro-blogging site Twitter to express their thought over the matter.

Let's have a look at how Twitter reacts over India's defeat in the Women World Cup final 2017.
