Punjab fans react to Sir Ishant Sharma's exclusion from the team
That's what happens when you don't play Ishant Sharma

A good score to defend 188/7.
— Kamalpreet Singh (@singh__kamal)
Lets hope for good.
Best thing is not having in playing eleven😊.
He now holds the orange cap as well!
Quite an interesting stat this!

Well that has been the trend!
Nathu looks good. Apt contender to be dropped next game following the tradition.

Dinesh Karthik's 58* off 44 balls didn't get the reaction he would have hoped for
the way dinesh karthik is batting, he is giving a tough competition to Yusuf Pathan

it seems DK played for his 50 only not for winning match.. Not a single six from his bat so far until over 18.
— Sathish Kumar K M (@sathishkmr53)
But DK wasn't the only one to be bashed
Dwayne Smith is consistent in giving that one big over with bowl and getting out after hitting one four with bat

Jio ads might sadly be the only place we'll see Dwayne Bravo performing for the Gujarat Lions this season.
— Banna. (@iJaiDeep_)
Just a difference of 118 runs in the margin of victory!
Fun fact: KXIP and RCB are the only 2 sides to successfully defend a total vs. GL. KXIP defended the lower one, though
