However, the Internet itself was left shaking when former Indian team cricketer Virender Sehwag, clearly affected by the earthquake, took to Twitter and posted his reaction. That was just what the doctor had ordered for netizens and everyone jumped on the bandwagon with their hilarious reactions. Read them all here:  

 

Notably, this is not the first time Sehwag has rocked the Net. 4s and 6s have been raining from his fingers on Twitter ever since he first took to it - just like they did from his bat when he was playing cricket. 

His outspoken nature and honest appraisals have been mostly well-received by netizens.
 

After the earthquake had struck on Thursday night, everyone feared that aftershocks will hit again and things may get worse and that is why they rushed outdoors. 

The best thing to do during an earthquake is to rush outdoors to a safe place in the open. 

In case that is not possible, then the best thing to do is to hide under a sturdy piece of furniture in case things start crashing down from the ceiling.
