Twitterati reacts as PBKS face off against KKR in a crucial match
KKR and PBKS face off in the 45th IPL 2021 game at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium today. It is a crucial contest for both teams as the league stage nears the end.
Punjab Kings skipper KL Rahul won the toss and chose to field first. In the absence of Chris Gayle, Punjab have brought in big-hitting Fabian Allen into their middle-order. KKR had to make a forced change as Lockie Ferguson was unfit. Swashbuckling Kiwi batsman Tim Siefert replaced him in the playing XI. He is making his debut for KKR today.
Here are some of the best reactions:

Bit surprised with the decision of KL Rahul bowling first. It's the same strip which is used two days ago in RCB vs RR game. Wicket might slow down in 2nd half. Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy will be threatening in 2nd half. #KKR should have played Shakib. #KKRvPBKS

Lockie Ferguson ❌
Tim Seifert ✅
Mavi ✅
Warrier ❌Why Ben Cutting and Shakib not considered?
Why Tim Seifert?Venkatesh Iyer as 5th Bowler?
Nitish Rana as 6th Bowler?Let's see how this goes#KKRvPBKS pic.twitter.com/nhUVWZUjcv
