Here’s how twitterati reacted to the great win by RCB, have a look:
Kings 11 have only themselves to blame for the position they have gotten themselves into. They had 5 win from their first 6 matches and since then have messed it up. Today’s magnitude of loss will affect their run rate severely. RCB on the other hand will be delighted #KXIPvRCB

Looking at the way they have been batting, what was the harm in playing @YUVSTRONG12 ? Punjab has become just a 2-batsmen team now #KXIPvRCB

Surya kumar and Ishan. Surya kumar and Rohit. Gayle and Rahul. Mayank, Finch and Yuvi. Batsmen Umesh has dismissed in one over this season. #KXIPvRCB

What a fiery spell of fast bowling by Umesh??? In a batsman favouring format, these are a delight to watch #KXIPvRCB

Remember when things were just going fine for KXIP and then they decided to experiment with their batting order against Rajasthan Royals for no reason…. been all downhill since then. #IPL2018 #KXIPvRCB

in the strategic timeout #KXIP will have to strategise how to avoid the owners on the way out tonight #KXIPvRCB

Now, none of us need to know the reason behind KXIP’s success till now. It is KL Rahul and Chris Gayle (till some extent). Nothing beyond them. Not even Karun Nair, he has let this team down in every situation.#KXIPvRCB
