A couple of interesting trivia to start, about Green Park, where the match was played tonight.

And clearly Kanpur didn't know what kind of pitches are to be prepared for IPL, consult Chinnaswamy!

But before Smith created havoc, Gambhir did what he does best.
Virat Kohli : Run Machine

Gautam Gambhir: Run Out Machine. ;)
#GLvKKR #IPL2016 #IPL #IPL9
Gambhir has been run out 21 times in T20s - most by a batsman, goes past Jayawardene's 20 such dismissals. #GLvKKR

Tim Cook came to visit the IPL match which only added to the party mood!

'Being Indian' by Tim Cook.

Tim Cook has been to Siddhivinayak, Mannat and IPL. In about 48 hours, Tim Cook has become more Indian than most Indians born in India.

For the noobs, Mannat in the residence of Shahrukh Khan.
Yes this happend, and Mr. Shukhla was introduced by the anchor before Tim Cook!
Apple's brand value hits a sudden low as Tim Cook is spotted sitting beside Rajeev Shukla. #GLvKKR #IPL

Ṭim: Who is this bowler ?
Man: He is Dhawal Kulkarni, a very expensive buy but an average performer, just like iPhones
Raina today surpassed 4000 runs in IPL, but these two stats show how good a certain run machine has been!
Suresh Raina in IPL:
— Bharath Seervi (@SeerviBharath) May 19, 2016
- Second to 1000 runs
- First to 2000 runs
- First to 3000 runs
- Second to 4000 runs#GLvKKR
Raina took 37 innings to move from 3000 runs to 4000 runs in IPL. Kohli took just 18 innings for the same! #GLvKKR
