Sunrisers Hyderabad hit the Mumbai Indians by 10 wickets on Tuesday to break into the Indian Premier League playoffs. However, while the victory ensured the Hyderabad team earned a playoff spot, it also eliminated the Kolkata Knight Riders from the tournament. As a result, there were many reactions about the expulsion of the Kolkata team from the tournament.

The Mumbai Indians weren’t playing a full-strength squad and Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult and Hardik Pandya all rested before Thursday’s Qualifier. However, with a victory necessary to qualify, Sunrisers Hyderabad skipper David Warner and Wriddhiman Saha ensured that the team chased a total of 150 at a gallop without missing a single wicket.

People initially reacted with celebrations of the Hyderabad victory, noting that they had carried out similar breakout acts in previous editions of the IPL.

There were also many reactions on how the Kolkata Knight Riders must feel after failing to make the playoffs:

The team led by David Warner moved to third place in the team standings and will face the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the first tie.
