Cricketing trends in Twitter today

Legendary Australian spinner kicked off today’s edition of Cricketing trends in Twitter today with his book launch. Given the fact that he is indeed 45 years young, the title of his book is quite apt to say the least – ‘ Not. Done. Yet’. Given the number of comebacks Hogg has made, it would not be a surprise to believe that he would write another book soon.

The news, however, surrounded two major events that have been taking place in the recent past. India’s 246-run win over England at Vizag prompted the likes of Rahul Sharma and Rohit Sharma to come out in praise of Virat Kohli and his band of merry men. Virender Sehwag and Dean Jones however, took a moment to analyze the importance of James Anderson’s King Pair.

The other news saw Faf du Plessis come front and center with a reporter itching to make some story in their encounter at the Adelaide Airport. Shaun Tait took a dig at the reporter stating that a shove was simply not enough. That said, here are some of the best tweets in today’s edition of Cricketing trends in Twitter today.
