Congress brutally trolled on Twitter for calling Indian Test team ‘Men in Blue’
A tweet posted from Congress' account became the reason for their own insult
Team India registered their 10th Test series victory at home after defeating West Indies by 10 wickets in Hyderabad on Sunday. Despite a terrific bowling performance in the first innings, Jason Holder and his men couldn’t overturn their batting collapse which allowed India ending the game on the third day itself.
After the victory, Kohli & Co received praises from fans, experts and others on social media. However, a tweet from Indian National Congress Party's official handle didn't go well among the fans as they got brutally trolled on the social media platform.
Congratulating Team India, Congress wrote in a tweet, "Congratulations to the men-in-blue for the 2-0 Test series win against West Indies"
Here's the tweet:

Indian team discovered a plethora of talents in this Test series. Debutant Prithvi Shaw slammed century in Rajkot and ended up scoring 274 runs in the series which made him the deserving candidate for the Man of the Series award. Secondly, Rishabh Pant showed humungous character with the bath in both the games. Though he got out on 92 in both innings, he provided the support whenever he was deployed to bat.
Apart from these youngsters, speedster Umesh Yadav registered his career-best figures of 10/133 in Hyderabad which played the major role in flooring West Indies.
