Virat Kohli did what he does best and successfully chased down another target, this time to guide the Royal Challengers Bangalore to the playoffs. Twitter reacted to a brilliant piece of fielding by Kohli, Negi's selection and Rahul's belligerence. Here are the best of them.
Defending champions Mumbai Indians were knocked out even before this match got underway.
This tournament will miss that fantastic bench of Mumbai Indians' coaches.

What an amazing catch from Kohli to dismiss Nair!
Moral of the story: If Virat is chasing, you have little chance.

And solve global warming...
What's left for Virat to do this IPL:

1) Climb a flood light tower
2) Dress up as a cheerleader
That Virat Kohli catch reminded me the Kapil Dev one of 1983.
— Vikram Mehta (@MehtaMorphosis)
It was not an 'away' game Virat...
Virat Kohli after taking the catch put a finger in his lips to silence the crowd. But 90% of the crowd is supporting RCB. 'Away' game. 😂😂😂😂😂
— Aditya (@forwardshortleg)
They just about did.
delhi must ensure they get enough for virat to get a ton in the chase

If IPL was a Marvel movie...
watch this 😂

The important question..
So you pick both Morris and Brathwaite in the team so they can watch Negi take himself apart in the middle.

Dravid and Upton took on the Reform Negi project with great zeal. Expect them to make him drive the team bus back to the hotel.
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket)
Negi has had a shocking season this time around, and his selection more so.
Pawan Negi is that MBA student who got big package but failing to perform accordingly.

Just about right.
Pawan Negi's IPL:

Wonder what will motivate Kohli today...
RCB batsmen find themselves in an unfamiliar situation where their bowlers have delivered for the team already.

Sad that he is signing off on a losing note..
Sad To Know This Might Be The Last Match Zaheer Khan Is Playing. Not Sure If He Would Play Next .
— Sir Ravindra Jadeja (@SirJadeja)
That Awkward Moment When You Want Virat Kohli To Smash Sixes, But The Bowler Is Zaheer Khan & You're Like Not Against Him.
— Sir Ravindra Jadeja (@SirJadeja)
Savage!
AB de Villiers Continues The Legacy Of South Africa. Chokes When It Matters The Most. ;)

Rahul making Dravid proud.
KL Rahul is playing a kohliesque innings today! Leading from the front!
— HoldingWilleyCricket (@holdingwilley)
Had the (Indian) commentators followed domestic cricket, they wouldnt've been surprised with KL Rahul playing the reverse sweep & big shots.
— Karnataka Ranji Team (@RanjiKarnataka)
The guy that will get forgotten in this batting symphony orchestrated by Kohli and friends is KL Rahul. 341 runs @ 56 this .
— ian bishop (@irbishi)
Hasn't KL Rahul been one of the finds of the ? As a T20 player!
— Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha)
It is becoming so predictable now.
Kohli quietly seeing it through while Rahul was picking boundaries. Beauty of Kohli isn't in making records, it's in playing the situation.
— cricBC (@cricBC)
Not many teams can boast of this..
Big win for Delhi tonight as they prevent Virat Kohli from reaching a century.
— Alt Cricket (@AltCricket)
To sign off...
Kohli can probably hit a half century even when the target is 49 runs.
