Alyssa Healy congratulated Nathan Lyon on him claiming his 200th wicket while Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara praised Kusal Mendis on his impressive century. It was throwback Thursday as Anil Kumble shared what exactly happened on the latter’s previous visit to Kingston all those years ago. That said, here are some of the best Tweets in this edition of Cricketing trends in Twitter today.
