Twitter makes fun of a slow Saurabh and a reckless Yusuf as Mumbai beat Kolkata
Mumbai made as many as six changes to their squad and yet came out on top against Kolkata. Saurabh Tiwary, who made his season debut, and Yusuf Pathan were two people who caught the attention of the Twitterati - one for playing too slow and the other for playing too fast and recklessly.

Not a bad ploy, Saurabh.
Saurabh Tiwary just reminding everyone that he's available for next year #IPL Auction. #KKRvsMI #IPL2017

Though, not sure scoring 50 off 42 balls will impress any owners, except maybe KKR...

Will he get some points for consistency?
Impressed with Saurabh Tiwary's consistency. He was missing the ball by a km when he came in. He is still missing it by a km 35 balls later.

He finally had to run himself out and his batting partner said this.
Rayudu on Saurabh Tiwary run out "He definitely needs to improve his running, needs to understand last 4 overs and has to run" 😂😂😂 #IPL

Moving over to KKR innings. This fan pulls out this interesting stat - Harsh but maybe true, what say?
Narine v SRH, MI, DD, RPS: 6, 1, 0, 4, 16, 0

Narine v GL, RCB, KXIP: 37, 42, 34, 54, 18
Basically wins you matches that can be won anyway
Only possible explanation for Chris Lynn getting out to Vinay Kumar
Chris Lynn gets out being in 4 minds

Whether to hit Vinay Kumar for a 4 or a 6
Throw him out of stadium or break the ball in 2

After Yusuf Pathan reached 20 off 6 balls

Yusuf Pathan is playing extremely well in this match. All other teams can now relax for the next 50-60 IPL games.

But then he had to get out the very next ball which evoked some harsh tweets from KKR fans...
I have grown up watching Cricket but i have not seen any player who is as useless as Yusuf Pathan play for so long in a team. #KKR
— Israr (@israrrukh) May 13, 2017
Dear lord, please let this IPL be the last IPL for Yusuf Pathan in KKR. Amen

Don't know who it is more insulting to.
Yusuf Pathan is Wayne Rooney of @kkriders #KKRvsMI @SonySIX #extrainnings #gameover

Context: Umpiring today - Missed RG Sharma edge on a wide, missed deGrandhomme edge to the Keeper & finally gave Kuldeep caught behind when he didn't edge.
