Twitter reacts on Narine's fastest IPL fifty
Sunil Narine blasted the joint-fastest fifty in the history of the Indian Premier League as he helped Kolkata Knight Riders thrash Royal Challengers Bangalore by six wickets to move to second spot.
The off-spinner, who has opened for Kolkata regularly this season, dealt only in boundaries and smoked a six off S Aravind to reach the historic feat. His fifty had five fours and four sixes.
The West Indian was at his attacking best and punished his countryman Samuel Badree. In a single over of Badree, Narine hit three identical sixes towards long-off and followed with a four.
