Dale Steyn Has Asked A Very Good Question To KXIP: Kings XI Punjab lost the match miserably to Royal Challengers Bangalore last night at the Holkar Stadium of Indore. Last night, he team the worst performance in the ongoing league as the complete team was bundled up at the score of only 88 runs that the team scored in 15 overs.

The players gave poor performances in all the three departments of the game. In the first innings, Aaron Finch (26), KL Rahul (21), Chris Gayle (18), stretched the total scores to only 88 runs. They were the only players who could attain two digits score, the other players couldn’t contribute much to the total scores and ended up scoring single digits only.

In the second innings as well, the bowlers of KXIP failed the team as Virat Kohli and Paarthiv Patel chased the scores in only 8 overs. The skipper of RCB, Virat Kohli scored 48 runs off 28 balls, hitting 6 fours and 2 sixes, while, Parthiv Patel scored 40 off 22 balls, he smashed 7 fours. The team scored 92 runs and won the match like true champions.
However, KXIP’s fans were left disheartened and disappointed. The fans have been blaming the skipper of Punjab, R.Ashwin for his poor selection of the players. From trending ‘Bring back Yuvi’ to ‘Remove Mayank Agrawal’ the fans are sure that the fault is in the selection of the players.

Apart from Yuvraj Singh, David Miller, who has won a number of games for KXIP in past season, was still kept on the bench.His compatriot Dale Steyn, took to twitter to express his feelings about the same.
Here’s what Dale Steyn posted:
So why isn’t Miller getting a game? #justaskingforafriend

The tweet read:
“So why isn’t Miller getting a game? #justaskingforafriend”

Nooo… Ashwin is just being unpredictable ???
— Ron (@PoJoLoJo) May 14, 2018
The fact that you and many others can predict that Miller’s inclusion is logical is exactly what’s stopping Ashwin from including him in the XI. He wants to win every Nayi Soch award. #UnpredictableAshwin

Miller is far far better than stoinis …he is like banana skin in the team…. simply waste ?

I desperately want KXIP out of this year’s IPL all because I can’t stand Ashwin’s extra smug face. I know its petty, but that’s the way it is. #it is all due to #ashwin’s ego#KXIPvRCB
