Before Rahul Tewatia became an overnight star, with his brilliant entries against KXIP at IPL 2020, during which he hit five sixes in a single Sheldon Cotrell, the all-rounder didn’t have a huge following on social media. After his 31-ball, 50-run hit helped the Rajasthan Royals record the highest successful running chase in history, Tewatia has been the talk of the town, this despite another stellar match a day later at the that RCB beat MI in a Super Over.
Tewatia had approximately 5,000 Twitter followers prior to that match and last tweeted in 2018, a photo with Gautam Gambhir, when he was still part of the Delhi Daredevils. However, after that entry, she became one of the top trends on Twitter, and naturally her following grew. Yet amid all the celebrations and numerous social media accolades from former cricketers and fans alike, the Haryana native was pretty quiet on social media. That’s until tonight when he sent a cheeky tweet, “Sorry guys I’m late.”

Sometimes the delay is to be appreciated. His delay makes the game more interesting. I think you never forget anyone in the history of IPL for your sixes. You are the rock star of the party.
