Not only did Australia's bowlers send India's changing room into disarray in an extraordinary session of Test cricket at the Adelaide Oval today, they did the same to millions of Twitter feeds.
Astonishing scenes played out in the opening session of the third day as India were skittled for their lowest innings score in Test history, with their 42 runs against England at Lord's in 1974 eclipsed by their 36 in the Border-Gavaskar series opener.
Australia's demolition – spearheaded by star pacemen Josh Hazlewood (5-8) and Pat Cummins (4-21) – also consigned India to the equal-lowest innings total in Test history in Australia, matching South Africa's 36 at the MCG in 1932.
Disbelieving fans took to Twitter in reaction to the onslaught.
