Twitter reacts to KXIP being denied by millimetres as Maxwell hit falls agonizingly short of ropes to hand KKR victory
There are tight finishes, there are extremely close finishes and then there is the finish which we had in the encounter between KXIP and Kolkata Knight Riders in Abu Dhabi today. With KXIP needing 7 off the last ball, a Maxwell lofted drive fell millimetres short of the ropes to hand KKR the win.
KXIP could've played better
And it happened. It did. #KXIP just snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. #KKR defeats #KXIP by two runs and two cms. A first in cricket, perhaps. 🙏 #IPL2020

Not everyone is MS Dhoni
That was a unbelievable result for @KKRiders ! U cannot take the game so deep if your openers are set ! Puts too much pressure on the middle order with no time to settle ! Bad luck @lionsdenkxip #ipl2020 well played @RealShubmanGill @mayankcricket !@DineshKarthik game changer!

Five defeats in a row
The @lionsdenkxip franchise has every right to question their captains and coach. How on Earth could they lose this one? #KKRvsKXIP

Absolutely
These end-overs.... Test the very best. Have to feel for @lionsdenkxip

#KKIP gave classic examoke of how to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Frankly, senseless adventurism by Agarwal and Pooran gave #KKRa lifeline which they grabbed with both hands. Five defeats in a row suggest utter lack of self belief

Karthik was calm and composed till the last delivery
Wow! I don't have words for what I have just witnessed. Brilliant captaincy from @DineshKarthik and what a comeback by @KKRiders ! "Never say die" should be the theme of this IPL! @lionsdenkxip need some serious strategy rejig! #KKRvsKXIP #IPLinUAE
