Embarrassing ourselves in front of foreigners: Twitter doesn't take kindly to IPL 2016 opening ceremony

The ninth edition of Indian Premier League (IPL) got off to a star-studded start with glittering opening ceremony at the National Sports Club Of India (NSCI) in Mumbai on Friday. With a strong number of cricketers from across the globe, stars from the entertainment sector and other dignitaries filling the stands, the 120-minute plus programme saw the country’s Twenty20 tournament take off in style. Or not. Folks on the social media were not exactly impressed by the glitz and glamour of the evening, and decided to react in their own way. Presenting to you, 10 of the best tweets on the IPL opening ceremony:
