The cricketing trends in the social media today saw the players talking about the plethora of cricket action going on in the cricket world. Most of the talks, as expected, encircled around the the IPL clash between the Delhi Daredevils and the Rising Pune Supergiant. The RPS camp lost the game by 7 runs but showed exemplary fielding skills on the day.
Ben Stokes took a screamer on the boundary ropes that won him praises on the social media. From the commentators to RP Singh, all lauded his effort on Twitter. West Indies cricketer Darren Sammy was happy to quote that the Caribbean Premier League is the biggest party in the sports world. Meanwhile, former English cricketer Andrew Flintoff wished Rob Key on his birthday.
Gary Kirsten did not look very pleased with the sports facilities in the schools in South Africa. On the other hand, Neil Fairbrother could not stop drooling over the catch taken by Ben Stokes. Glenn Maxwell had his opinion on Stokes too. Meanwhile, Pakistani pacer Umar Gul wished Mohammad Hafeez on his anniversary.
AB de Villiers has freebies to give away provided you win the contest launched on his official app. Isa Guha was seen meeting the star cast of upcoming Bollywood movie Raabta – Sushant Singh Rajput and Kriti Sanon – in the pre match show of the IPL. She looked happy to be meeting them.
That said, here we look at the cricketing trends of the day:
