From Kings XI Punjab’s astonishingly poor fielding that helped Manish Pandey get his half-century, to Rashid Khan’s mind-boggling bowling to dismantle Punjab’s in-form batting line-up, the Twitterati went mad as the high-octane game swung like a pendulum before SRH eventually emerged victorious.

Brief Scores : Sunrisers Hyderabad 132/6 (Manish Pandey 54, Shakib Al Hasan 28; Ankit Rajpoot 5/14, Mujeeb-ur-Rahman 1/17) beat Kings XI Punjab 119/10 (KL Rahul 32, Chris Gayle 23; Rashid Khan 3/19, Basil Thampi 2/14) by 13 runs.

Here are the best tweets from the match:

Apt analogy!

Ouch!

First Kaul, then Chahal and now Rajpoot! 

Have to applaud Pandey's presence of mind!

And then this happened!

Remember the name, ANKIT RAJPOOT!

Well said!

KL Rahul is an absolute delight to watch!

And then Rashid Khan happened!

That would be the team to beat!

And he is just 19 years old!

Let the SRH praise begin!
