Cricketing trends in Twitter today

Cricketing trends in Twitter today began with an interesting tweet from David Lloyd who seemingly ran into somewhat of a doppelganger. Virat Kohli, his deputy Ajinkya Rahane, and a few other Indian cricketers took a minute to wish everyone on Raksha Bandhan. Mohammad Azharuddin wished India’s newest star, Sakshi Malik following her Bronze medal in the 2016 edition of the Olympics. That said, here are some of the best tweets in today’s edition of Cricketing trends in Twitter today.
