@PranavSriraman Happy birthday, Pranav! Best wishes!

Officially an adult 🙏 blessed to see 18.

@robelinda2 That last ball LBW, I still can’t believe how it went straight The action, release, and wrist position all seemed to indicate it was going to turn to outside off after pitching. Insane. Rest In Peace! Legend!

Pure greatness

Shane Warne A thread of leg spin 🧵 🏏 Test debut vs India, 1st over

@beastieboy07 @Uz_Khawaja Another gem of an article, Bharat! I love these underdog, comeback stories especially when it is beautifully crafted like you have done here. Kudos to Khawaja on a splendid hundred.

From coming to terms with his destiny to embracing his own legacy, @Uz_Khawaja has rarely seemed more confident in being Usman Khawaja. At the SCG, he also provided a lot of belief to those who’ve followed his path in search of the Australian dream #Ashes cricbuzz.com/cricket-news/1…

@krishashok Excellent thread, @krishashok. Imagine a cigarette company claiming that they tested their cigarettes to cure asthama and bronchitis.

Indian print advertisements over the years. A thread

@SriniMaama16 Sid Monga is in Ashwinesque form with this piece. One for the ages. It takes a keen observer with strong mutual respect with the player to bring out this wonderful piece. Hats off to both.

Sid Monga is the Steve Smith of Cricinfo. More than a decade's work of sustained excellence in long-form writing to average in the 60s. Every now & then, he churns out a daddy hundred like this to increase his average further. What an outstanding read! thecricketmonthly.com/story/1293861/…

@beastieboy07 The cover up on most occasions is worse than the crime.

The Tim Paine saga is another reminder to sporting bodies that keeping a scandal or an issue of this nature on the hush-hush never makes it go away. It only makes it much worse and more sinister when it inevitably surfaces

CSK win by 20 runs.This is prof pdogg algorithm in t20 cricket.Good night all

@beastieboy07 @vinodkambli349 @ImRo45 @DineshKarthik Another reminder that people always remember how someone made them feel when they were going through tough situations more than the actual help they may have received.

Big shoutout to @vinodkambli349 from @ImRo45 in his interview to @DineshKarthik, recalling how it was Kambli who came to him & helped relax his nerves, asking him to focus on his batting & not the starry teammates watching him bat during his early days in the Mumbai nets #ENGvIND

@beastieboy07 @HaseebHameed97 @beastieboy07 Another fantastic article from Bharat. Reminds me of Wright Thompson/Lee Jenkins type profile stories. Looking forward to more of these.

Much like at Lord’s, @HaseebHameed97’s form-finding trip to NZ in 2019 began with being bowled off the 1st ball he faced. But he left such an impression during his 8-week stay that the Wellington cricket community’s been rooting for him ever since #EngvIND cricbuzz.com/cricket-news/1…

@beastieboy07 @beastieboy07 that that man that that problem

Backing the Guatemalan in the 5000 m heat. Love the hair. Running that long in this humidity can’t get great for knots I’d think #Tokyo2020 #Olympics #HairToWin

@gauravsabnis @TheWayfarerSoul Chitale Bakarwadi: Perfect mix of spice, sour and sweet. Legend among Bakarwadis. Once you had Chitale, all other Bakarwadis, you feel something is missing or not right.

@TheWayfarerSoul Chitale Bakarwadi and that's a good thing cos I couldn't be with someone I'd have to share them with every time. 🤣🤣

What is a food that you love to eat but your partner refuses to eat?

@gauravsabnis Love the ESPN+ US coverage. Excellent commentary team and you have Nasser Hussain, the best in the business covering this match.

There is a constitutionally mandated genuflection to Sachin Tendulkar happening on hotstar during the lunch break. Foreign guests prodded to praise Sachin. It's so tedious! Even during an effing #WTCFinal with this new crop, air time has to be set aside for sachin aarti. 🙄🙄

@beastieboy07 Ollie Pope pulling off a McKayla Maroney.

Whatever was said in the little huddle by Joe Root after the drinks break, and yes even if it did result in Ross Taylor’s wicket, Ollie Pope didn’t look too convinced #EngvNZ

@sudkrish Patti to rest of us: Take that! That was easy peasy! Legend!

@pranavsriraman @StephenCurry30 Excellent analysis @pranavsriraman. What a comeback season for @StephenCurry30!

A Deep Dive into Stephen Curry’s historical 2020-21 NBA season (a thread):

@k_rupal @gauravsabnis As Seinfeld Maharaj says:" .. not that there's anything wrong with that."

Exactly! There's nothing wrong with just not wanting to have kids, regardless of career options. Not all women are meant to be mothers and that's fine.

Happy birthday @beastieboy07. May you have a fantastic year ahead with splendid performances from your beloved @windiescricket and #MichaelNeser. Keep up your awesome work. Waiting for your book on #IndiavsAus series.

@Foodiepenn @gauravsabnis @krishashok @ReshChakraborty @umasudhir Potentially through Doha. Quarantine (complete isolation inside hotel room for 10/14 days) in Doha, after negative PCR tests can proceed to fly into US. Good to check latest Qatar quarantine/transit rules.

Any idea how to arrange for a 70 yr recent widow fully vaccinated to travel to the US/UK/Singapore to be with her kids? No greencard. #CovidHelp #CovidHelpOnline @gauravsabnis @krishashok @ReshChakraborty @umasudhir DM me

It will be fantastic to get @isaguha for #IPL2021. Looking forward to her "Edged and taken" call. Her analysis/chats from India/Aus series were insightful. She always elevated the standard of cricket conversation whenever she was on.

@DineshKarthik @DineshKarthik not only upping his commentary/punditry skills, he is mastering his Twitter game as well.

Thanks a lot athers ❤️ it felt great to be amongst you'll
