Twitter reactions: MS Dhoni’s masterclass goes in vain; KXIP wins a thriller against CSK

Kings XI Punjab beat Chennai Super Kings by 4 runs in yet another nail-biter match in the Indian Premier League (IPL 2018).

Chasing a mammoth total of 198, CSK kept losing wickets at regular intervals, but in the end captain, MS Dhoni stood tall to make sure it did not become a one-sided match. However, CSK fell short by 4 runs.

CSK did not have the best of the starts as they would have liked chasing 198. Shane Watson played some shots before getting out for 11. Mohit Sharma, former CSK member took the wicket.

Earlier, put into bat first, Kings XI Punjab had a dream start as the comeback king Chris Gayle when hammer and tongs from ball one. KL Rahul was not far behind, and he too hit some good shots. Chris Gayle scored 63 runs. Other batsmen did get starts but failed to convert them into big scores. Despite Imran Tahir getting two wickets in two balls, KXIP was able to reach 197-7 in the 20 overs.
