RR's loss ECB gain!
RR might have missed the trick by not opening Jos Buttler early in the IPL and ECB might be taking some notes now...

Too late?
Why did Rajasthan Royals take so long to realise that Jos Butler would be a better choice to open the innings for them?

And then Manjrekar jinxed it! -_-
Just the previous ball, Manjrekar says Buttler should get going right away.

Buttler comes down the track next ball and gets stumped.
Manjrekar says that’s the problem with Buttler 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
IYKWIM!
Buttler-Rahane opening combination makes me nostalgic. Reminds me of Sehwag-Aakash Chopra days

Afghans ruling the IPL, who would've thought?
Would you have believed it if you were told 3 years ago that two of the biggest bowling stars of the would be from Afghanistan!

KXIP batting got of to a bad start!
Storm passed away quietly.. from jaipur.😂

Chris Gayle looked like a real 38 year when he got stumped by Buttler. Pressure of competing against much younger opponents beginning to tell.

Couldn't finish the game but played a magnificent innings.
Really unlucky to not finish off the game!
Some knock by KL Rahul. Didn't deserve to lose

KXIP batsmen were wearing the invisibility cloak today!
KL Rahul at it again, finishing N.O. on 95. But where are the rest of the team? He needs some support.
