The second match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2016 was surely a disappointing one for the Delhi Daredevils fans as Kolkata Knight Riders beat Delhi Daredevils by 9 wickets. Held at Eden Gardens, Kolkata, the hosts restricted the visitors to a mere total of 98 runs in 17.4 overs. Apart from their brilliant bowling, the hosts were good with the bat too. The opening pair of Robin Uthappa and captain Gautam Gambhir laid the foundation for KKR’s victory. The Kolkata Knight Riders easily managed to chase the target of 99 runs in just 14.1 overs.
Here are the best twitter reactions from the match :

Good news : another good (read balanced, not batting) pitch.
Bad news : the cheerleaders in the studio. #IPL2016

Batsmen getting bamboozled by the googly at Eden! Always difficult to pick wrist spinners, coz they don't reveal the seam position. #KKRvsDD

Congratulations to @KKRiders they win their opening match by 9 wickets. A complete performance by KKR #KKRvDD

Am kinda surprised that, after such a competitive #WT20, the first two #IPL2016 matches have been distinctly disappointing contests.
