Twitter reacts to KL Rahul’s ‘brain-dead’ captaincy gifting Mumbai 25 runs off the final over
After running out of bowlers to bowl the last over, KXIP skipper KL Rahul had to call in off-spinner Krishnappa Gowtham, who conceded 25 runs, including a hattrick of sixes from Kieron Pollard. Ending with figures of 53 runs in 4 overs, Gowtham propelled MI to a monstrous score of 191/4.
God was not happy with Rahul's captaincy
191 is a very competitive total on this ground. Brilliantly paced innings by @ImRo45. An off spinner to bowl against @hardikpandya7 and @KieronPollard55 in the 20th over! 🤦♂️#KXIPvMI #IPL2020
