Twitter reacts to Dhoni's wicketkeeping masterclass and Uthappa's batting exploits
BCCI
After yesterday's washout, the Twitteratti were waiting to get started and the match did not disappoint them. Starting off with Robin Uthappa's missed stumping opportunity, Twitter was given a gift when Dhoni produced a moment of magic to show everyone how it was done.
Brief Scores: Rising Pune Supergiant 182/5 (Steve Smith 51*, Ajinkya Rahane 46; Kuldeep Yadav 2/31, Umesh Yadav 1/28) lost to Kolkata Knight Riders 184/3 (Robin Uthappa 87, Gautam Gambhir 62; Daniel Christian 1/31, Jaydev Unadkat 1/26) by 7 wickets.
Here are the best Tweets from the match
There is only one MS Dhoni!!
Robin Uthappa's normal wicket keeping looks like we are watching in slow motion. @msdhoni is the best. #IPL2017 #IPL10 #RPSvKKR

Wouldn't bet against itΒ
Rahane played an ODI inning good enough to get selected for CT. Hope he doesn't play good test knocks once when we get there. #IPL #RPSvKKR

He was playing a dangerous game
If Dhoni bats like this in every match @hvgoenka will deactivate his Twitter #RPSvKKR

And this is what his counterpart did
I simply love Gambhir's captaincy....slip, leg slip and silly point for MSD. Teams couldn't do it in Tests. #IPL #RPSvKKR πππ

And people could not stop raving about it
There should be two levels in wicket keeping

1 MSD level
2 Professional level #RPSvKKR #IPL10 #msdhoni
Well, they don't say "Catches win matches" for no reason

Don't doubt it!
Throw stones at Uthappa and he'll send them out of the boundary as well. What an entertaining player. #IPL #VIVOIPL #RPSvKKR #AmiKkr
