'The movie plot of Rocky': Reactions to Rahul Tewatia's incredible comeback

Rahul Tewatia was a central figure in one of the most dramatic of chases in the history of IPL at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. The 27-year-old Haryana all-rounder scratched around for 8 runs from 19 balls as Rajasthan Royals' turbo-powered chase appeared to have lost steam.

Off his next 12 deliveries, he hit seven sixes and scored 45 runs as the Royals came back from the brink to complete the highest-successful run chase in IPL history. Twitter lauded the southpaw's incredible comeback.
