IPL 2020: Twitter reacts to inexplicable double-super-over MI v KXIP match

Twitter erupted with their thoughts and reactions on an inexplicably insane match of cricket in the Indian Premier League match between Mumbai Indians and Kings XI Punjab. This was match that can’t be explained in words. A match that had to be seen to be believed. The match with arguably the match with the most surprises in the history of the Indian Premier League. A match that went to not one but two super overs. A match that witnessed Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Shami at their best.

Twitter flooded with reactions of shock

During and immediately after the match, Twitter was flooded with reactions of shock and surprise at what had transpired. Here are a few:

Whatever happens now, this is already the best IPL match ever. What a save from Mayank Agarwal. Punjab fighting to stay in the game!
