Twitter reacts as Mumbai Indians comeback from nowhere to win the match

05/04/2018

Mumbai Indians have finally made it two in a two as they beat Kings XI Punjab to keep their reputations of being the late-bloomers in the Indian Premier League alive. While the win gave the Twitterati enough "masala" to have fun, at the same time, they didn't forget to troll RCB as well.

Brief scores: Kings XI Punjab 174/6 (Chris Gayle 50, Marcus Stoinis 29; Jasprit Bumrah 1/19, Ben Cutting 1/28) lost to Mumbai Indians 176-4 (Suryakumar Yadav 57, Krunal Pandya 31*; Mujeeb Ur Rahman 2/37, Andrew Tye 1/35) by 6 wickets.

At least he is consistent in something this season!

Toss is the only thing which Rohit Sharma has consistently won this season !!#KXIPvMI

KL Rahul and Chris Gayle to RCB : How do you like me now? :P

Chris Gayle & KL Rahul become the second pair to score five successive 50+ stands in IPL after Virat Kohli & AB de Villiers in 2016 season.

That's power of #RCB products 💪💪💪💪💪💪

Rahul has been in brilliant touch this season!

KL Rahul has just hit two cover drives into the second tier. Madness. Brilliant to watch though! #IPL

That six over covers of Bumrah from KL Rahul is probably the best six I’ve seen for a long long time. Effortless. Pure class #IPL2018 #KXIPvMI

Three certainties in life:

Who would've thought!

"The main reason for Gayle's success this year is his patience. He is waiting for the right bowler to attack. Very unlike Gayle".

He is bringing his experience to the fore.

Then came the deserved 50!

Another Game for Chris Gayle and another 50 for him. Just Another Day for him at office.

Yuvi is in horrible form indeed!

Watched Yuvraj Singh play for Kings XI today. It's not the same man anymore, one look and it's obvious he not fit enough. His game is over.

Truth!

Yuvraj Singh hits a four only in the Kent RO ad.

Football reference of the day...

Yuvraj Singh is the Arsene Wenger of cricket.. Few years at the top but his good name has been tarnished by his stubbornness not to retire

What an innings by Suryakumar Yadav! Another batsman in form!

Suryakumar Yadav has scored 53 runs in team's total of 76. He needs to stay till the end to take them over the line #KXIPvMI
— Sriram (@Sriram_MSD7) May 4, 2018

And, GONE!

.@MStoinis after a handy innings with the bat, now does the job with the ball.

He bowls a short one to Suryakumar Yadav who miscues it and is caught by @klrahul11 for 5⃣7⃣.

Mumbai Indians are 8⃣0⃣/2⃣ after 1⃣1⃣.4⃣ overs.#LivePunjabiPlayPunjabi #KXIPvMI pic.twitter.com/8XuCZPTFQV

Rohit Sharma showed up at the right time today!

Rohit Sharma has remained not out 17 times when chasing in IPL and his teams have won every time - 4 times for Deccan Chargers and 13 times for Mumbai Indians. #KXIPvMI
