Indian Premier League (IPL) franchises Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) may be rivals on the field but their Twitter handles sometimes paint a different picture. The teams had a funny banter on Twitter after the IPL 2020 auction on Thursday. Kolkata Knight Riders bought 9 players in the auction. Also, they bought Pat Cummins, who became the costliest overseas purchase in IPL. On the other hand, CSK bought only 4 players including two big buys of Piyush Chawla and Sam Curran. CSK's Twitter handle posted a picture of a team official eating “rosogolla” (a sweet Bengali dish) during the auction, making the most of being in Kolkata.
