    How did Twitter react to Mumbai's win over KKR?

    How did Twitter react to Mumbai's win over KKR?

    Mumbai Indians secured their 4th victory of the campaign as they beat Kolkata Knight Riders. Batting first, they posted 181/4 courtesy of the knock by Suryakumar Yadav. In reply, KKR could only manage 168/6. The bowlers of defending champions put in a commendable shift to choke down KKR's batsmen and secured a 13-run win. Here are the best reactions from Twitter.

    Turning point of this fixture

    Robin Uthappa's dismissal was the turning point of this fixture. Before his dismissal, Kolkata Knight Riders were scoring at almost 9 an over. His wicket opened the floodgates.

    Twitter is not easily impressed by Rohit Sharma

    Media : Why do you always peak so late in the IPL ?

    Rohit Sharma's blade fails to come good yet again

    "How are u deciding your playing position?"
    Rohit Sharma : it depends on team's demand, if they want me to bat till 20 over, I ll go in 18th, if till 10th, I ll go in 8th.#MIvKKR

    Twitter baffled by Cutting's demotion

    Interesting choice to have Duminy ahead of Cutting or Ishan Kishan. Thought Cutting was there to bat at the end. A few runs here and there mean so much now.

    — Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) May 6, 2018

    Rohit Sharma's captaincy has been questionable

    Cutting ahead of Duminy, no? With only 18 balls to go... #MIvKKR #IPL

    Twitter won't let Rohit Sharma sleep tonight

    Nayi soch award to Rohit Sharma, for having the best 11th man in the IPL, Ben Cutting.
