Netizens could not keep calm as Gujarat Titans batter Vijay Shankar was in carnage mode against the Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium. Smashing the fastest fifty by any GT batter till date, Shankar smashed an unbeaten 63 off just 24 balls helping his side to put up a commanding total of 204 runs. In absence of regular skipper Hardik Pandya, Rashid Khan took charge of the side electing to bat first after winning the toss.

Shankar came in when his side lost Abhinav Manohar quickly just after Shubman Gill's wicket. Everyone was expecting David Miller to come up the order but Shankar silenced his critics with a statement-making knock against KKR. He smashed 4 boundaries and 5 maximums in his stellar innings.
