Bowled By Banter

Got the blue tick today - upgrading from ignored opinions to controversial ones.

DC coach on Miller: 'Salil had a back spasm, so we had to make a call as we needed an opener.' ​DC dropped Miller but didn't include Prithvi Shaw in the team. How badly is he doing in the nets? #DCvRR #DCvsRR #RRvDC #RRvsDC

@MrBeast Hmm

If this tweet has exactly 1 like in 24 hours I’ll give that person $1,000,000

@academy_dinda No Rabada ?

Donnovan Ferreira unreal consistency with the bat at death🥵 Klaasen, Lungi, Don, Stubbs, Rickelton, Burger— Africans bossing the IPL

DC is where world-class finishers go to disappear. If David Miller can’t find a spot in their XI, Donovan Ferreira had zero chance. Trading him to RR is a mercy killing; at least in Jaipur, they know what to do with a player who can actually hit a six. DC would rather play with a 'safe' lineup and lose than take a risk on a match-winner.

Donavon showing Delhi what they've missed by trading him to RR for just 1cr.

What a player Ferraira has been for RR #RRvDC #RRvsDC #DCvRR #DCvsRR

@poserarcher I love how you just assume Shahrukh will definitely play. Shahrukh Khan has become an inevitable glitch in the system. Fans talk about his selection the same way they talk about the weather or the toss - it’s just something that happens whether you like it or not.

Gujarat Titans will tweet the same when Shahrukh Khan will perform after so many failures on Sunday 😁😁😁

@Kunal_KLR That 15-year-old kid has won more matches for RR in this season than KL has won for DC in two years.

We never got owned by a 15-year-old kid.

If you’re not celebrating Vaibhav’s wicket, you’re essentially pretending he isn't the most dangerous man on the field. Teams are spending hours in the dugout plotting his downfall - when you finally get him, you better roar. Anything less is just a fake humble act that insults the level Vaibhav is playing at.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi is one of the best players of IPL ..it doesn't matter how old he is...it's okay to celebrate .. Indians are just obsessed with age they can't even talk about Vaibhav without mentioning his age.

Axar wasted a review on Parag! 😭😭😭 Finally, some positive contribution from Parag. #RRvDC #RRvsDC #DCvRR #DCvsRR

@rajasthanroyals Can we switch off our TV now?

Switch on your TV sets. It is time!

Why even bother playing the middle overs? With the openers gone, RR has zero pulse. Giving DC the points now just saves everyone three hours of watching a slow-motion collapse. #RRvDC #RRvsDC #DCvRR #DCvsRR

Not today #RRvDC #RRvsDC #DCvRR #DCvsRR

@rajasthanroyals @ParagRiyan @akshar2026 Clearly Parag only practices for the toss.

"Itne toss jeetne ka secret?" 😂💗

@theprayagtiwari How do you expect to stop when the hand you need for the rear brake is busy holding a phone? She grabbed the front brake in a panic after hitting the speed breaker she didn't even see. Pure physics - front brake + speed breaker + one hand = disaster.

All thanks to 4 ft-high speed breakers

Seated for Starc vs Sooryavanshi #RRvDC #RRvsDC #DCvRR #DCvsRR

@cricbhawana Wide open ? Seriously 😒😒

Top 4 race is wide open after Gujarat Titans win, with Shubman Gill leading from the front as captain and batter. 👌

@GabbbarSingh Same here, but if you're asking for my ranking, it would be: 0. Sooryavanshi 1. Punjab 2. Rajasthan 3. Hyderabad

The only 3 teams I am excited about watching this IPL: Sunrisers Hyderabad Punjab Kings Rajasthan Royals

@academy_dinda They keep calling him a 'finisher', and to be fair, he is - he finishes his team's chances of winning every time he walks out.

Been around IPL teams since 2021 but for no reason💀

@CricCrazyNIKS You missed "not" in your sentence

Very shocked that Krunal has bowled today. Any reasons, or I have missed something?

@Rajiv1841 How is this a scam? He isn't performing even in 1 match. They keep calling him a 'finisher', and to be fair, he is - he finishes his team's chances of winning every time he walks out. Scam is what Maxwell did.

Shahrukh Khan has got a guaranteed place in the team for doing absolutely nothing & he is making generational wealth here by scamming franchises.
