2016 may not have been a great year overall, but it certainly proved to be a memorable one for the Indian test team. We won 9 out of the 12 test matches we played and drew the rest 3. Be it West Indies, New Zealand or the mighty English, no one was able to get the better of Virat Kohli and company.
India ended their 2016 test season with a big bang as they defeated England with a scoreline of 4-0. India is now also undefeated in their last 18 test matches, their highest winning streak ever.
Here are some of the best tweets celebrating this emphatic win.
1. Proud skipper

Win the toss. Score 477. Go on to lose the match by an innings. Now, that takes some doing. #INDvENG
