5 cricketers with the highest social media following
Cricket, which is slowly turning into a global game, is one of the sports attracting the attention of many on various digital platforms.
2. Sachin Tendulkar – 106.9 million
Batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar played his final game for India back in 2013. However, the little master is as much in demand on social media post his retirement from the sport as he was during his playing career. Tendulkar has a following of close to 107M social media users across multiple platforms. With 33M followers on Instagram, 37M on Facebook and almost 36.9M on Twitter, the former Indian captain sits pretty at the number two spot.
Tendulkar has his social media following well aligned with his cricketing records. It is almost as if Tendulkar has continued with his knack of making new records by translating his dominance to the world of social media as well.
It could be wondered if social media was as prevalent during Tendulkar’s prime as it is now, what numbers would the legendary cricketer rack up.
