Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) are all set to hosts Delhi Daredevils (DD) in Match 36 of IPL 2016 at Mohali. Hashim Amla, who was called in as replacement for Shaun Marsh in KXIP is enjoying every bit in India travelling by the local transports. Amla posted a picture on Twitter with his experience in ‘TukTuk’ mentioning, “Cruised the streets of Chandigarh today, been ages since I had an adventure on a tuktuk.” On the hindsight, DD’s middle order batsman Sam Billings had a funny experience to find his name incorrect on a invitation after Usman Khawaja from Rising Pune Supergiants (RPS). Billings went on to Twitter to express this humorous incident, “Arrived in Mohali, bit of a name change… Mr Willinibillings.”

Khawaja, roped in as replacement for Pietersen, found a very unusual and funny scenario of typo error on his jersey which is supposed to spell ‘Khawaja’ and not ‘Khwaja’. The Australian went on to Twitter and sportingly said, “Looks like Pune were expecting ‘Khwaja’ to come play. I better go home . #typo #pune #IPL #india #cricket #delhi.”
