IPL 2020 Unlocked Or Is There More To It Than Just That? Remember Paul- the Octopus from Fifa World Cup 2010? The miraculous octopus who rightly guessed the outcome of every single game of the tournament. Looks like we have got such a miraculous creature in the world of Cricket as well. No, he’s not an octopus, but a normal human being, and more importantly, an Indian.
What Were The Predictions That Were Made By This Cricket Fan?
Mitul is a 26 years old boy living in Ahmedabad, India and calls himself a ‘Modern day Astrologer’. On July 27, he posted a prediction on Twitter regarding IPL 2020:-
“Yep yep
Kohli will be avg this IPL
CSK will not reach Playoffs
RR will finish last
KXIP will not reach Playoffs
SRH will win IPL
RCB will reach Playoffs with Delhi and MI”
Below is the link of the Tweet predicting the results of the current tournament in the UAE

Surprisingly, most of his points have already been proved right. This tweet has gone crazily viral on social media and everyone is wondering about the secret behind this miraculous boy. Experts are saying that so many points being proven right can’t be considered a fluke and is once in a blue moon scenario.
The tweet has gathered 2.1k likes and 1.9k retweets in the meantime. The boy recently posted another tweet boasting about the fact that his predictions were all right. After that, his tweets started to get attention.
Mitul is a writer in reality and he writes scripts and articles for some media agencies. Oh, the irony of the whole thing. It is now going to be quite interesting to see whether his biggest prediction that “SRH will win IPL 2020”, becomes a reality or not?
What Next For The IPL 2020 Tournament As We Head Into The Last Game Of The League Season?
Currently, SRH is not yet qualified for the playoffs. In fact, they are in the fifth position on the points table. After tonight’s match between RCB and DC, both of those teams have qualified for the playoffs. As of now, KKR is in the 4th position with two more points than SRH, having played an extra match. Mumbai Indians had already been qualified in their previous match.
Tomorrow’s match against Mumbai Indians will be a do or die for Sunrisers Hyderabad. They have a better NRR than KKR and they just need to win the match. So simply, if SRH wins tomorrow, they are through to the Playoffs. And if they lose, then KKR will be through.
Netizens and most predictors are supporting Mumbai Indians to lift their 5th title this year, seeing their form. But Mitul’s prediction of SRH as the winners took everyone off guard. And you better take him seriously now, because all his other predictions were correct.
