04/17/2016

MS Dhoni's Rising Pune Supergiants suffered their second consecutive defeat of the IPL season as KXIP produced a disciplined performance to register their first win. Twitter was not very convinced with Dhoni's decision to bat, nor with his team selection, and here are the best tweets from the match.

Captaincy has never been David Miller’s strongest suite.

Bizarre captaincy by Miller. On a green top, he's bowling with his spinners, in the powerplay 😑
— Abhishek Mahato (@abhi_tweets05)

Oh boy!

The commentator just said "MS Dhoni is a proper batsman." - Ramiz Raja.

Oh, we miss you Harsha Bhogle. We really do!
— David De Mata-gasm (@Chaseeism)

Mohali absolutely went bonkers when MS Dhoni got the strike.

This match looks like a home ground for the RPS when Dhoni is around!
— HoldingWilleyCricket (@holdingwilley)

But a pretty good one at that.

Dhoni has become the first professional runner in cricket.
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket)

This guy is asking life changing questions.

Is that an hair transplant by Mohit Sharma or is it a wig?
— TheGoanPatiala (@TheGoanPatiala)

It usually does not end well.

Always dread the outcome when Ashwin has to run a second run.
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket)

That athleticism to stop that, amazing!

How is that for a save -
— IndianPremierLeague (@IPL)

Not sure if that was a wicket-keeper or a footballer. It was some brilliant footwork by MSD to stop that ball.

MS Dhoni Leg Behind Wicket
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket)

Three boundaries off the first three deliveries of his over were enough to seal his fate.

First and last IPL 9 game for Thisara Perera.
— Sports Banters (@SportsBanters)

Seems just about right!

With bowlers like Ishant, Pathan& Perera. RPS looking 100-120 runs short in this match.
— Sunil- The Cricketer (@1sInto2s)

Both the Ashwins faced the wrath of Maxi tonight.

Parents, whose kids are named Ashwin, in TN: "So jaa beta nahi toh Maxwell ajayega."

Communication is an important skill to have when two batters are running between the wickets, since a lack of camaraderie between the two could lead to disaster. The run-out of Harleen Deol was a perfect example of what a moment of miscommunication can lead to.
