The cricket fraternity was once again quite active across social media with many cricketers discussing a plethora of topics through their social media handles. Usman Khawaja took the platform to lambast the ICC for penalizing Australia with an overrate fine and pointed out the fact that they did not get to bowl in the fourth Test due to excessive rain. Star Indian batter Suryakumar Yadav shared pictures from team India's ODI series win against the West Indies.

Indian youngster Devdutt Padikkal came forward to reveal that he recently underwent surgery for a fracture in his thumb and that he is on his road to recovery. Former Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh took to Twitter to pay tributes to Shri Pingali Venkayya, the creator of the Indian flag on his birth anniversary.

Check out all the above updates and several others here:

Don't even get the chance to bowl in the second innings at Manchester due to 2 days of rain and @ICC still issue fines and take 10 WTC points of us for slow over rates! That makes a lot of sense... 🤦🏾‍♂️ pic.twitter.com/NKuGI61n2n

Over-rates are not at all overrated 👏👏 https://t.co/EmAyvn2NOx
