Twitter reacts to Gambhir’s Test innings and KKR’s unexpected loss against Punjab

Rahul Tewatia became the unlikely hero for Punjab fans as his spell of 2 for 18 helped the hosts to secure a 14-run win, which kept their playoff chances alive. Earlier in the day, Punjab posted a total of 167 runs riding on Maxwell’s 44 and that eventually dented Chris Lynn’s brave effort.

Why performs better? Because most of the player only work 2 months a year with 10 months holidays.

Hindi commentators suffer criticism no matter what they say

This year Some Hindi commentators are worst and today they said 39/0 in 6 is a good start 😂😂 when teams scoring 70 in 6

The bar is set too high

Just 14 from the first over. Lynn and Narine have obviously decided to start slow and get their eye in 😄😄

Why wouldn’t KKR win?

Gautam Gambhir becomes the third player to score 5000 runs in India in T20 cricket after Virat Kohli and Suresh Raina.

Lynn now has six half-centuries in his last eight T20 innings
