In today’s edition of Cricketing trends, the trend that was really set was the fact that today was the day filled with congratulations. Mahela Jayawardene and Graeme Smith congratulated Pakistan on becoming the World’s number one ranked Test side.

Meanwhile, in spite of being left at the altar of the world number one ranking in Test matches, Irfan Pathan and Unmukt Chand congratulated them for the same. Moreover, Ajinkya Rahane released a video message for his followers after winning the Arjuna Award.

Kevin Pietersen seems to be looking for a house in the wilderness of South Africa and made his feeling clear with a tweet. That said, here are some of the best tweets in today’s edition of cricketing trends in twitter today.
