Twitter reacts as Kings XI Punjab "drops" the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad
From Kings XI Punjab’s astonishingly poor fielding that helped Manish Pandey get his half-century, to Rashid Khan’s mind-boggling bowling to dismantle Punjab’s in-form batting line-up, the Twitterati went mad as the high-octane game swung like a pendulum before SRH eventually emerged victorious.
Brief Scores : Sunrisers Hyderabad 132/6 (Manish Pandey 54, Shakib Al Hasan 28; Ankit Rajpoot 5/14, Mujeeb-ur-Rahman 1/17) beat Kings XI Punjab 119/10 (KL Rahul 32, Chris Gayle 23; Rashid Khan 3/19, Basil Thampi 2/14) by 13 runs.
Here are the best tweets from the match:
Apt analogy!
Manish Pandey batting is like watching movie Gunda, it’s so bad that you will actually enjoy it for different reasons

Ouch!
Year 2008: Virat kohli and manish pandey are talented

Year 2018 : Virat kohli is a legend and pandey ji is still talented 😊😊
First Kaul, then Chahal and now Rajpoot!
Ankit Rajpoot Abusing Senior Player Like Shikhar Dhawan. 👎
— Mohit. (@mohit_sharma__)
3 Overs, 9 Runs And 3 Big Wickets Of Shikhar Dhawan, Saha And Kane Williamson. Great Bowling By Ankit Rajpoot But That's Not The Way To Celebrate Your Wicket By Abusing Your Seniors. Not Cool. 👎

Have to applaud Pandey's presence of mind!
Umpires don't spot No Ball on which Shakib was caught out
— Benedict John (@john_benedict)
Manish Pandey spots it at the nonstriker and protests with da umpire who den asks for review and give Shakib Not Out eventually.
Imagine a nonstriker spotting it which da umpire missed.Incredible
And then this happened!
Four catches dropped by KXIP players.

The Sunrisers' lucky!! All the missed chances and dropped catches by the Kings XI is a gift from the gods. But disappointing for the KXIP fans. Terrible fielding
— Gostosa Querida (@GostosaMN)
Remember the name, ANKIT RAJPOOT!
Ankit Rajpoot becomes first bowler from KXIP to take five wickets haul in IPL history...

What a team has 😱
What if David Warner opens this batting and Bhuvi finishes the death over😱
Can't imagine a better team.
And he is just 19 years old!
2/11 in 4 overs in the last game to bowl out the defending champions for 87 in their home ground and now returns to his home ground and bags 3/19 in 4 overs to run through the batting line-up of one of the most balanced sides this season. Rashid Khan! 👏
