Twitter reacts to another umpiring howler and KKR's win over SRH

no image

KKR choked SRH with their spin bowling but it was the individuals who grabbed the attention. From Narine to Dhawan, from Bhuvi to Rashid, and Uthappa to Shastri - all had their moments today and the Twitterati didn't miss the chance to troll everyone. Here are the best tweets from the KKR-SRH game!

An all round performance from the Kolkata Knight Riders led by Robin Uthappa and Manish Pandey ensured a 17 run win over defending champions, Sunrisers Hyderabad. Kolkata have now leapfrogged Hyderabad into second place on the table as the visitors failed to register a win at the Eden Gardens again.

Brief scores: Kolkata Knight Riders 172/6 (Robin Uthappa 68, Manish Pandey 46; Bhuvneshwar Kumar 3/20, Rashid Khan 1/29) beat Sunrisers Hyderabad 155/6 (Yuvraj Singh 26, David Warner 26; Chris Woakes 2/46, Yusuf Pathan 1/2) by 17 runs.

Before we get to today's action, something that was bothering me from yesterday

The Irony!

The difference!

Narine, who? (Pardon the profanity)

IPL umpires strike back!

Quite possible!

I agree

We can confirm that Ravi Shastri did make the mistake...



Rashid Khan is so good!

Burn! (Is Rohit Sharma reading this?)

The beauty of Bhuvi's bowling

How can we forget Dhawan
