After losing valuable wickets of Chris Gayle and KL Rahul, Nicholas Pooran stepped in and scored a quickfire 48. But it was Sam Curran's brilliant 57 off just 27 balls that helped Kings XI Punjab reach a total of 183. Twitterati slammed Ashwin for playing Pooran's wrong position and praised Curran.

What a player!

Close call! 

The batting position made all the difference! 

Maybe this is the reason why they haven't qualified for the playoffs! 

Pro jinxer! 

Interesting observation! Now KXIP can drop Rahul and play Pooran without wasting a foreign quota! 

Literally! 

That one dropped catch might've just cost KKR the match!

Well said! 

Already?

KKR should've done their research!
