Twitter reacts as Kolkata Knight Riders knock Rajasthan Royal out of the IPL

Deathly silence at the Eden as Narine falls off 2nd delivery. Unhappy start for KKR. Big smile on Rahane's face, not seen often this season!

Drop Robin uthappa ASAP next season

— JordaN (@iNationalSRKian)

Have a feeling Uthappa expected KKR captaincy and is upset for not getting it. Shadow of himself with the bat and highly disinterested in the field.

This guy, Shubman Gill,with a Kohli like technique and Sehwag like open stance,is gonna go places in future.

Shubman Gill, you combination of the beauty and the beast! What a brilliant shot, that was.

52 off 38 balls

Captains innings 😍



Come on 🔥🙏

Andre Russell's 25-ball 49 means that KKR have put a sizeable total on the board in a knock out game.

Brutal power hitting by Andre Russell. Some massive sixes by Russell takes KKR to a solid score of 169/7 after they were struggling at 51/4 in 8 overs. Well played

— Nikhil Ram (@Nikhil_Rams)

150 was looking difficult and then our middle order Dinesh Karthik, Shubman Gill, Andre Russell lead it to 170. Imagine KKR with Manish, Yusuf, Shakib; KKR wouldn't have even qualified in the playoffs.

Soft dismissal for Rahul Tripathi. Sanju Samson should do well. He is back to his original position as well.

— Jaanvi 🏏 (@ThatCricketBuff)

I guess didnt want to wait there to finish the match but was patience to get his 50

— Shafraz Basheer (@shafrazbasheer)

Rahane was playing as if it is a test match!! Even Sanju Samson's batting leaves much to be desired, not to speak of Klassen, another white elephant!!

— EM RAO (@emr1002)

Not every team is CSK...RR lost a match that was always under their control... Sanju Samson should have batted till the end & finished it...

— NOTA (@tweetw_ala)

An exemplary example of team effort by the Kolkata Knight Riders.
