Twitter slams Dinesh Karthik for sending Andre Russell at no. 7

13th over, no Russell yet. So what do the incumbent batsmen do? With every ball, they are giving Russell less time but surely they can't throw it away for him either. Why doesn't he just bat at no 6?

Finally some smart captaincy in after all the mediocrity of DK, Ashwin, Rahane & Kohli...

Dinesh Karthik and the people behind that do the planning are the biggest fools in the cricketing world I’ve ever seen in my lifetime.

captaincy of williamson is as good as in all match seen    &

I think at this point leadership would not be any better than leadership. Such poor DK has been this season.

The best thing about the last hour was when announced Rashid and Nabi would be available for the whole league stage at the very least.



Wonderful news 😍

Confidence level in life should be Chawla thinking he should be on strike.

Just watching the IPL on . Can’t understand why KKR have the master blaster Andre Russell batting at number 7. What a waste.

My view in hindsight, Russell should have batted a slot higher
