Cricketing Trends on Social Media today

The cricketing trends on social media today revolved around Virat Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma who announced the arrival of the third member in their family in January 2021. The adorable couple revealed the news on Instagram through their respective official handles and posted their picture together. Soon after the news was revealed, congratulatory messages flooded in for them.

The likes of Ajinkya Rahane, Rohit Sharma, VVS Laxman among many other Indian cricketers congratulated the couple. Among other trends, Dwayne Bravo received wishes from Jason Holder after completing 500 wickets in T20 cricket on Wednesday. He became the first ever bowler in the world to do so in the shortest format of the game and seems determined to go a long way still.

The Indian Premier League (IPL) is coming closer than ever and the teams have started practising after serving their quarantine period in the UAE. Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) player Mayank Agarwal took to Twitter to post pictures of his training after a long time and was feeling blessed.

11. Manoj Tiwary gives his views on Sushant Singh Rajput case

A free bird, who was always heard of confessing its desires of flying high, is being wrongly called a slave to the disease of claustrophobia after its demise. Major contradiction has taken place earlier this morning. It is something which is hard to believe.#SushantSinghRajput
