Twitter users were enjoying the banter between the two Twitter handles and started commenting under the post:
Hey Wimbledon guys. Learn something from these ICC blokes. There wasn't any need for the breaker in the 5th set. You could have declared the winner on the basis of number of aces hit at 12 all. Bizarre. Shame.
