There was a time when fans really found it difficult to communicate with their favorite cricketers, but that was all before the inception of Twitter. Ever since social networking sites like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat have turned an integral part of people’s lives, they are getting to know their favorite stars a lot better than they did previously.

Twitter took birth in July 2006, but it started to spread like wildfire around about 2009-10. It provides a perfect platform for celebrity and fans’ interaction and it also is a lot convenient for the celebrities. It gives them an option to interact only with the ones they want to.

Talking of Twitter and cricketers, Virender Sehwag is a name which should be mentioned for sure. Ever since he retired from the gentlemen’s game in 2015, Sehwag took up the role as a Hindi commentator in Star Sports and has been doing a wonderful job. In addition to that, his hilarious Tweets often keeps the fans engaged with him.
