Fans React as Rajasthan Royals Destroy CSK.

The Indian Premier League started for the Yellow Army with the match against Rajasthan Royals. After not being able to do well in the last season, fans had a lot of expectations from their side this time. With all these hopes, CSK entered its opening game against Rajasthan Royals to start the new campaign with a win.

But things didn't go as expected. Chennai Super Kings had a terrible batting collapse, which started with the wickets of Sanju Samson and Ruturaj Gaikwad. Ayush Mhatre went for a duck, and even players like Sarfaraz Khan and Shivam Dube weren't able to score big. Jamie Overton scored 43 runs to ensure the team reached a competitive total of 127 before being all out.

However, Chennai Super Kings didn't even manage to put up a fight with the ball. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi went on to smash a fifty in just 15 balls, and Rajasthan Royals went on to chase the total within 13 overs.

Here's how fans on Twitter have reacted to the CSK vs RR match.

Riyan Parag received a lot of trolling as a player a few months back. But now, he surely deserves praise for his captaincy in this game.

Missing him Already?

With just one game, the CSK fans are missing the presence of MS Dhoni. A Twitter user used the meme material, where a politician was crying over Mahatma Gandhi's statue. He just swapped Gandhi with Dhoni and the politician with CSK fans.
