Cricketing trends on Social Media today

The cricketing trends on social media today revolved around Pakistan’s fantastic win over Zimbabwe in the T20I Tri-Series in the African nation. The No.1 ranked T20I side played like one and were thoroughly clinical in all the departments of the game. Zimbabwe though playing with a depleted team was no match. During the course of the game all-rounder Shoaib Malik also achieved the milestone of scoring 2000 runs in his Twenty20 career. A lot of Pakistani cricketers including the likes of Mohammad Hafeez, Salman Butt tweeted to congratulate him.

The Indian team had to make a couple of forced changes in their team and they added Deepak Chahar as a replacement for Jasprit Bumrah and Krunal Pandya for Washington Sundar in the T20I squad for the England tour. Others like Michael Vaughan, Sachin Tendulkar and Ross Taylor shared their own moments from the day. All that and more in the trends of the day.

1. Sachin Tendulkar watched the movie Sanju and absolutely loved Ranbir Kapoor’s performance in the movie.

Enjoyed watching #Sanju!
Fantastic performances by #RanbirKapoor, @SirPareshRawal and @vickykaushal09.
Loved how each of them got into the skin of their characters. Not to mention @RajkumarHirani and #AbhijatJoshi who’ve once again outdone themselves.
