Every IPL fan right now

Kent Cricket Live is making IPL look like a serious tournament while Extra Innings T20 made it look like a festival. I'm missing every bit of it, even that stupid 'Thokko meter'. #KXIPvDD

So true!!!

I get happy whenever Karun Nair does well.

It's like the universe telling him, "It's OK, bro. You scored a 300 on test debut and still can't make it to the Indian side? Here's something to cheer you up!"#KXIPvDD
