Cricketing trends in Twitter today

Cricketing trends in Twitter today began with Matthew Hayden making his way to Madurai ahead of the start of the eagerly-awaited Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL).

In spite of his demands as Indian coach, Anil Kumble managed to find time to share perhaps the most important event of his life almost 26 years ago. Virender Sehwag wished Indian Olympic starlet Dipa Karmakar on her birthday while Proteas players Alviro Peterson and Wayne Parnell seemed to be the only ones who remembered Women’s Day. That said, here are some of the best tweets in this edition of Cricketing trends in Twitter today.
