What's the story

Rajasthan Royals beat Mumbai Indians by 3 wickets in a nail-biting thriller at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. Royals secured their third win of the campaign. Mumbai Indians had almost pulled off a victory but a late cameo by Krishnappa Gowtham broke Mumbai's hearts. Here is how Twitter reacted to Gowtham's mind-blowing knock of 33-runs off 11 balls.

The batsman from Gowtham city

Krishnappa Gowtham was bought for 6.2 crores in the auction.

Wondering why?

He's proved it tonight! #RRvMI

At least Gowtham proved to be a wise investment

He's been a fantastic buy for #RajasthanRoyals, this Krishnappa Gowtham. He'd been tracked by quite a few franchises and showed his value today. 33(11)!!

Gowtham's cameo wins it for RR

Stunning knock by Gowtham. Who would've thought RR would win?! 4th time Mumbai lose in 20th over this IPL. Rohit has lots to ponder over
