What a match at Jaipur, as Mumbai and Rajasthan played out another thrilling match in IPL 2018!

Rajasthan seemed dead and buried when Bumrah and the Mustafizur ripped through their batting lineup. But Gowtham then played an outstanding knock, as he suddenly took the game to the last over.
From 38 required from 14, the Royals just needed 10 off the last over, as Hardik Pandya was tasked with finishing the game for Mumbai.
But Shreyas had other plans, as the Karnataka star smashed a four and a six to win the match with three balls to spare.
Here are the best Twitter reactions!
Krishnappa Gowtham was bought for 6.2 crores in the auction.
Wondering why?
He's proved it tonight! #RRvMI

Jaidev Unadkat's average economy this IPL is 11, which is still 0.5 lesser than his auction price. #RRvMI

So the real mystery about Gowtham wasn’t his bowling! #RRvMI

#JofraArcher – I'm your fan mate. Express pace, good variations, jolly attitude.. His action is being compared to the legend Michael Holding's.. He adds so much character to the game. #RR's new trump card and a grt debut.. #RRvMI
