10 best cricket tweets of 2016
The world of social media, more often than not, carries a storyline of its own pertaining to whatever action transpires on and off the cricket field. With several cricketers being active members of various social media websites, banters, discussions, and to an extent, arguments happen to be a daily dose for a social buff. The increasing familiarity with one’s favourite cricketers through the direct engagement that the platforms of Facebook, Twitter etc. provide, makes one believe that their favourite cricketer is only a text away.
It also provides the cricketers to speak their minds to millions of their fans. Twitter, particularly, is one of the favourite social media platform for cricketers. The year of 2016 saw some really interesting, and witty Tweets being sent out by cricketers.

Earlier in 2016, England’s swashbuckling batsman Kevin Pietersen was not included in the 15-member squad for the World T20 to be held in India. Pietersen was in fine form then after having a successful stint with the BBL franchise Melbourne Stars in late 2015. However even after the good form, Pietersen was constantly been ignored by the ECB due to disciplinary issues and differences with few teammates. Pietersen played down his exclusion from the squad, and saw the funny side of it.
