SRH vs MI | Twitter reacts as Alzarri Joseph dethrones Sohail Tanvir to register best figures in IPL history

Wicket of David Warner with his first ball in IPL cricket. No gimmicks, no sloppy dancing, just a class non-celebration with his teammates. 22 year old Alzarri Joseph is already my favourite West Indian in the IPL.

And Alzarri Joseph came as the replacement for Milne.

Alzarri Joseph's first claim to fame (aside form the u-19 World Cup) came when he smacked AB de Villiers on the helmet with a bumper in the Caribbean Premier League.



Setting the IPL on fire now with a searing spell🔥

Feels like MI's season. Player after player performing. Similar to CSK's last season.

Alzarri Joseph, Jasprit Bumrah, Jason Behrendorff. Aajao koi bhi ab.

Alzarri Joseph registers the best bowling figures of 6/12 in history.



Take a bow, young lad 🙌🙌

Thank you Alzarri Joseph. A Pakistani doesn't hold the best bowling figures in the IPL anymore

— srijith (@srijithcfc)

Best bowling figure in IPL history! 6-12, in batting dominated t20!

Alzarri Joseph, well done! 👏

Dream debut for West Indies pacer Alzarri Joseph.



Coming in for Lasith Malinga, who has gone back to Sri Lanka to play in a domestic event, Joseph dug in to take 6 wickets for 12 runs, the best figures in IPL history.



At 23, his story is only beginning.

MI fans right now : Malingaa you did a great job, Don't come back to IPL😂
