Twitter explodes as Virat Kohli smashes his fifth IPL century

Virat Kohli you Lion!🔥 What an innings! This is pure class! I wonder how many runs would have piled up if ABD was there tonight!

Time to see if Russell got his same fireworks tonight!

Sensational 100. The acceleration from Kohli has been awesome. Moeen set up the carnage and Kohli sealed it dramatically

Kuldeep just upped Russell's workload.

Kuldeep Yadav this year had been the most stand out flop performer for and should be dropped. Has failed miserably to take wickets, leaked runs, almost in every match.

Most expensive figures for a spinner in IPL:



59 - Tahir, DD v MI, 2016

59 - KULDEEP, KKR v RCB, 2019

57 - Karn Sharma, SRH v RCB, 2016

57 - Jadeja v RCB, 2017

Just in: Kuldeep Yadav is now officially the member of Ashok Dinda Academy.❤️

When bought Woakes I was happy, when they bought Moeen I scratched my head. Time has proven me pretty darn wrong.

Was good the other day as well. Appears Mo isn’t happy with “big dependence on Virat and AB” statement everyone bandies

What a fifty Kuldeep Yadav ..

— Gopi Kisn Taparia 🇮🇳 (@Its_Gops)

I've never seen so mediocre. This IPL hasn't been his and need to drop him. He's coming off a long season and looks toothless. This whole love affair shouldn't be the reason behind the downfall of a team.



Give him some time off and get him back maybe.

Kohli cheering Ali while he smashes Kuldeep all over the park. Gotta love the IPL.

KulCha without is not worth trying!!!

— Niken Shah (@niken_shah)

Kuldeep has always underperformed in compared to his international stature. This season has been horrible to say the least. Not many would say but Piyush Chawla is ' better spinner no doubt. Kuldeep has to be dropped for one match atleast.

This is how you bat when you have Moh Siraj in your bowling line up
