Cricketing trends in Twitter today began with Chris Gayle’s video shoot for the new Syvah Jersey. He was soon followed by Kevin Pietersen who wished both teams luck in the final of the PSL. KP’s friend Shane Warne completed another challenge on the reality TV show while Sachin Tendulkar endorsed Shah Rukh Khan as a fan.

Mitchell Johnson, Ian Bishop and Kieron Pollard voiced their opinions on the infamous Josh Hazelwood incident while VVS Laxman looked at the brighter side of things with a magnificent tribute to Brendon McCullum. Sanjay Manjrekar gave his expert opinion on the Indian T20 side prior to their fixture against Bangladesh. Former England batsman Robert Key found his calling in golf as he teed off for the first time.

Nasser Hussain spent the day with AB de Villiers as they shot a video for Skysports cricket. Tom Moody geared up for the PSL final with a kurta while Michael Di Venuto geared up for a stint with Surrey. Aakash Chopra finally concluded with a few pictures behind the scenes prior to the commencement of the Asia Cup T20 2016. That said, here are some of the best tweets in the Cricketing trends today.
