Twitter continues to troll Dinda as Punjab thrash Pune
Kings XI Punjab chased down the 164-run target set up by Rising Pune supergiant quite easily securing their first win of the season. However, the Twitterati were more interested in continuing their tirade against Ashok Dinda, while saving some praise for Imran Tahir and Glenn Maxwell.
Inspired batting from skipper Glenn Maxwell ensured that last season's wooden spooners, Kings XI Punjab, started their 2017 IPL campaign with a win over Rising Pune Supergiant. Maxwell scored an impressive 44* off just 20 balls as Punjab easily chased down the 164-run target set up by Pune.
Brief scores: Rising Pune Supergiant 163/6 ( Ben Stokes 50, Manoj Tiwary 40*; Sandeep Sharma 2/33, Swapnil Singh 1/14) lost to Kings XI Punjab 164/4 (Glenn Maxwell 44*, David Miller 30*; Imran Tahir 2/29, Ashok Dinda 1/26) by 6 wickets.
Here are the best tweets from the game:
It's unfortunate the most anticipated matchup didn't occur!
Kids: today is rps vs kxip

Men: today is smith vs maxwell
Ultra legends: today is lord ishant sharma vs lord ashok dinda ๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ๐
Halftime talks!
Smith to Dinda:Its 64 to defend for u in 4 overs and other bowlers will defend 100 in 16.
โ Master Dinda (@Troll_more)
Dinda-Tough but yes I will try.๐
You are not the only one mate!
Don't fancy Dinda trying to close this chase out ๐๐๐

Ok who ever it is take off ur mask !!
And to think Ishant Sharma wanted 2 crores!
Fun fact: Imran Tahir has never been brought in an auction. Was Coulter-Nile's replacement in '14 (DD), and now Marsh's for RPS.

He might do that even without picking a wicket
If picks either of the batsman ( or ) he can run out the ground.. the match is done

Hi ,Maxwell outsmarted Smith.That tweet from you look more silly now. ๐๐
โ Jose 'Judas' fan (@SemperFiUnited)
Hope you know you can't buy Maxwell ๐น
Isn't that everywhere?
Indore seems more of MS Dhoni home ground rather than of kings XI Punjab !
โ malay jain (@malay_j2)
No excuses for anymore brain fadesย
Best thing for Smith is that he doesn't have to luk towards dressingRoom to make decisions as Dhoni wud b right there in d ground
