It was a forgetful day for Robin Uthappa as he struggled get going and on top of that he gifted a maiden over to Mitchell McClenaghan in a do-or-die match with Andre Russell still waiting to come out and bat. Twitterati quickly took out their phones and started making fun of his innings on Twitter.

Andre Russell to himself sitting in the dugout!

Aptly named!

The way Uthappa has played in this season, it's not Robin Uthappa, it's Robbing KKR. #IPL

He's not gonna bring back that 1 maiden over back!

Whenever KKR has lost momentum this season in their batting innings, it has almost always been because of Robin Uthappa.

It has happened again tonight, but I am hoping he makes up for it.

Uthappa - The villain!

Uthappa creates pressure for the non-strikers as usual, reason why they try to slog and cost their wicket. Disgusting batsman ever Robin Uthappa.

Well said!

DreRuss out for a duck in a must-win match after the most bizarre mid-over phase this season perhaps. DK and Robin Uthappa might just have dug KKR's own deep hole. #IPL2019

What is the cure for this Virus?

Robin Uthappa is a virus....and he is taking KKR down with him. Whatever happens henceforth will not undo the damage already created. 9 of 21 after coming in to bat in the 6th over. Like seriously?

Not just Russell!

Robin Uthappa just played a maiden over in 11th over of the innings in a match which is a must win for KKR. Currently playing at 7 on 16 balls. Just imagine the feeling of Russell right now sitting in a dug out and watching this unfold. No wonder he's gutted. #MIvKKR
