After demolishing Mumbai Indians in Kolkata, DK and his Knights' next mission was to conquer Mohali and keep their playoff hopes alive till they meet MI in Mumbai.
KKR registered a rather easy win over the home side. It was a special win for KKR and more so for the local boy and our hero, Shubman Gill.
Here's how the Twitter world reacted:
From Delhi Capitals’ Camp
Loved the innings from @RealShubmanGill and the most important thing apart from the elegance and maturity that he displayed was that he was there till the end, wonderful signs for future of Indian Cricket #KXIPvKKR

He’ll go far
Emphatic, easy win for #KKR. And many positives too, none more than the composure of Shubman Gill. He is talented, true, but it is his composure that will take him far

Haha! You both did.
Thank you @iamsrk sir! 🙏🏻 Papa definitely stole the show 😁 #blessed https://t.co/CkRoNyKzK7

We are all so proud and happy for him
So happy that @KKRiders are allowing Shubman Gill to play his role at the top of the innings. 3 fifties in 4 innings opening the batting. Even more moving is that his mom has travelled to watch her son. She must be proud of the man he is growing into👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 to the Gill family.
