Tuesday (October 11) was a treat for all Indian fans, with the Virat Kohli-led Test side officially crowned the No. 1 Test side after their 3-0 drubbing of New Zealand. India, who had reclaimed the top spot in the world Test rankings after an unassailable 2-0 series lead in Kolkata, won the third and final Test by 321 runs on the fourth day. Wishes poured in from around the cricket world as Twitter was flooded with commending tweets.
