IPL 2022: From LSG vs KKR's eventful match to Kohli back in action
IPL 2022 just got interesting when the fans thought that this season was turning out to be a dud. The sole reason behind this was the amazing gameplay of Rinku Singh, KL Rahul & De Cock. But the most exciting and hopeful development this week was that our very own Kohli was back in form. This turnaround was equally shocking & exciting. Fans started to look forward to the next matches post this. Memers found this as the right opportunity to make jokes about & on everything surrounding it.
Match-1 : LSG VS KKR
Lucknow Super Giants beat Kolkata Knight Riders by 2 runs. LSG had a great start by winning the toss and electing to bat. Quinton De Cock played an aggressive game and helped LSG to set a good score for KKR. He kept smashing boundaries at intervals which made LSG fans go gaga over him throughout his innings.
Another major factor that helped LSG shine was Umesh Yadav bowling, dropping off his catch against de Cock. De Cock smashed it out of the park with 140* off 70 balls. Rinku Singh proved his mettle in this compelling match making him an instant noticed player. Fans loved this chap’s energy and gameplay and praised him for it. Despite his amazing 40 runs in 15 balls streak, KKR was found to be struggling to get stable in the game.
The end result was that they lost to LSG by 2 runs and Rinku Singh became the find of the season.
Match-1 : LSG VS KKR
Another compelling match that was a surprise one for all RCB fans was against Gujarat Lions. RCB beat GT by 8 wickets. Since the 15th TATA IPL 2022 is coming to its end with just 5-6 matches left fans had left hopes for Virat Kohli to be back in his original ‘avatar’ but the legend did surprise his fans worldwide by scoring 73 runs with a classic knock in the chase.
Virat and Faf duPlesis’s partnership proved to be a crucial one to make RCB win this important game. On the other hand, GT had to face defeat despite skipper Hardik Pandya winning the toss and opted to bat first.
Shubham Gill couldn’t create any magic and headed straight to the pavilion followed by Matthew Wade very soon. It was only Hardik Pandya who scored (62*) and helped Gujarat Lions to score 168/5 after 20 overs. David Miller (34) also played a vital role in helping GT to sustain for long. To add to that, Rashid Khan gave a smashing cameo at the end with 19* off 6 balls.
While these two matches were amazingly fabulous, memes were even more fantastic. Take a look:
