Cricketing Trends on Social Media today
Here is how the cricketers spent their day on Twitter and Instagram today.

India ‘B’ defeated Australia ‘A’ in the final of the quadrangular series and fast-bowler Siddarth Kaul was delighted after his team’s resounding victory.
Sachin Tendulkar lauded former Indian tennis player Vijay Amritraj on National Sports Day. Ajinkya Rahane, who is currently in England for India’s Test series, expressed his gratitude to the sportsperson who have inspired him. Jonny Bairstow can’t wait to play the fourth Test at The Ageas Bowl in Southampton. Colin Ingram thanked Glamorgan for his stint with the county.
Karim Sadiq wished Mohammad Nabi, who played his 100th ODI for Afghanistan against Ireland today. David Willey is looking forward to Yorkshire’s upcoming county championship match against Somerset. Indian Leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal uploaded a picture along with Vijay Shankar. Aakash Chopra reckons England leaving out Chris Woakes for the Southampton Test is an interesting choice.

England going in with two spinners. Moeen Ali and Rashid. Leaving out the man who won them Lord’s. No Woakes. Very interesting picks….win the toss bat first for sure. #EngvInd
