Vivrant would continue to attack the Mumbai bowlers freely after going past the fifty-mark, and would later break the record for the highest score by an Indian in his debut innings in the IPL, going past 34-ball 60 that Rajasthan Royals’ Swapnil Asnodkar had scored against Kolkata Knight Riders in the inaugural season in 2008.

The 23-year-old’s knock drew widespread praise on social media. Here, we take a look at select reactions on microblogging website Twitter:
