Twitter Reactions as Gautam Gambhir guides KKR to a win over SRH

04/16/2016

Gautam Gambhir helped Kolkata Knight Riders to an easy win over Sunrisers Hyderabad, but the match saw two amazing moments featuring Andre Russell. He first resulted in a brilliant relay catch and then got cleaned up by a brilliant yorker by Mustafizur. Here are the best tweets from the match.

Oh boy!

Morne Morkel's one over lasts for 9 balls.

Shikhar Dhawan's innings lasts for 7 balls. #SRHvKKR

The form that Dhawan is in, one cannot debate this.

Shikhar Dhawan in T20 cricket is as useful as a boat in a swimming pool. #IPL

Food for thought!

So many dismissals on no balls, I am wondering how many no balls field umpires miss on which batsman does not get out #IPL2016 #KKRvSRH

We know it exists, but nobody really cares about it. Similarly…

Dhawan as important as "Mutual Fund investments are subject to market risk. Please read offer document carefully before investing" #SRHvKKR

The PJ game is strong on this one.

Q: What would you call Piyush Chawla when he lost his line & length?

Add to this, 2 IPL titles as captain and Gautam Gambhir becomes one of the best assets in IPL history. Remarkable stuff!

Gaam Gambhir 16th to aggregate 5000 runs in T20s.

The batsmen were almost thinking of taking a second run, it was that slow.

Uthappa could've read the newspaper by the time, the umpire took a decision. #SRHvKKR

He literally had Russell fall flat on his face. Brilliant yorker indeed!

What a ball, that is the ball of the IPL for me! Full and spearing in, Russell bowled all ends up, well bowled, @Mustafiz90! #IPL9

Cannot get enough of this yorker.
