Cricketing trends in Twitter today

India’s loss to Australia in the first Test match in 13 years was the theme for today’s edition of Cricketing trends in Twitter today. This was the Indian team’s first defeat in the entire season and 20 matches to be precise. It was the brilliance of Steve O’Keefe who took 12 wickets in the match and conceded just the 70 runs in the entire match that pushed the result of the game in his team’s favor.

His effort was lauded by former Aussies such as Adam Gilchrist, Jason Gillespie, and even Mitchell Johnson. In fact, it was such a mesmerizing performance that ensured that even Dean Jones, the man who had presented him with the baggy green had to ensure that he did indeed post a picture. However, as for India, it was Virender Sehwag who gave a glimmer of hope for the wounded side to perform better in the following Test.

That said, here are some of the best tweets in today’s edition of Cricketing trends.
