Cricketing trends in Twitter today

With the BBL happening every evening, it almost impossible to keep Twitter from buzzing. Today, the Sydney Thunder registered the first win after four straight losses in a row. They defeated Melbourne Stars by six wickets to earn their first points. The win was a breather for them. The match, however, was an absolute thriller which saw Eoin Morgan finishing it with a six off the last ball.

This obviously had everyone jumping off the seats and reacting in awe. Graeme Swann was one among the thousands and seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed the match. Dwayne Bravo, the Melbourne Renegades star, today shared an update with his followers through a video message. The all-rounder underwent a surgery yesterday. On a brighter note, Anil Kumble and Ian Botham were enjoying early morning bliss. While Kumble was smelling the freshness of the mist, Botham was soaking the sweet sunshine at the beach.

The Pathan brothers – Irfan and Yusuf spent the day outdoors. Pathan Jr. enjoyed the hospitality of Udaipur while Yusuf was witnessing football action at an event. Harbhajan fell in love with a cake and was wondering whether to cut it or keep it with him.
