3 Weird Conversations Of Cricketers On Twitter

The Quirky Side of Cricket: 5 Weird Twitter Conversations by Cricketers

Social media has drastically transformed the landscape for celebrities, including cricketers. Today, a cricketer’s brand value and popularity can often be gauged by their social media following. Most cricketers, current or retired, actively engage on these platforms, leveraging them for promotion, endorsements, or simply connecting with fans. But sometimes, their Twitter interactions take a bizarre twist, making headlines and leaving netizens in splits. Here, we highlight five such offbeat Twitter conversations involving cricketers:

1. Ravindra Jadeja and Sarah Taylor’s Unexpected Exchange

Ravindra Jadeja and England’s Sarah Taylor are two cricketers one wouldn’t naturally associate together. Yet, in 2014, their Twitter chat caught many off guard. Following T20 World Cup finals losses for both their teams, Jadeja reached out to Taylor. Unfamiliar with Twitter’s workings, he messaged her without following her. Unable to DM him back, Taylor’s responses became public. Their conversation revolved around their respective finals, culminating in plans to meet poolside the next day at 10 AM.

@imjadeja thank you. And you ๐Ÿ™‚

— Sarah Taylor (@Sarah_Taylor30) April 6, 2014

@imjadeja neither did we! Bad day to bat first

— Sarah Taylor (@Sarah_Taylor30) April 6, 2014

@imjadeja ha same!! Its because they can see me tweeting you!

— Sarah Taylor (@Sarah_Taylor30) April 6, 2014

@imjadeja you have to follow me in order to DM

— Sarah Taylor (@Sarah_Taylor30) April 6, 2014

2. Jimmy Neesham’s Witty Banter with Sehar Shinwari

James Neesham, the New Zealand all-rounder, boasts a reputation for his Twitter wit. His online interactions spiked post the 2019 World Cup final. In a lighter moment, he tweeted about his experiences at the LA Airport, likening them to “eternal damnation in hell”. Sehar Shinwari, a Pakistani actress, humorously tweeted back, suggesting Neesham father her future children. Not missing a beat, Neesham responded, “I really feel like the emojis were unnecessary”. The exchange delighted fans, making both trend on Twitter.

Jimmy would you like to be daddy of my future kids ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜œ

— Sehar Shinwari (@SeharShinwari) August 28, 2019

3. Ross Taylor’s Surprise Hindi Reply to Virender Sehwag

The 2017 Mumbai ODI between India and New Zealand witnessed a fantastic win by the visitors, thanks in part to Ross Taylor’s prowess. Impressed yet ever the prankster, Virender Sehwag tweeted, making a playful jibe connecting Taylor’s last name to its Hindi meaning, “Darji” (tailor). The twist came when Taylor replied in Hindi, humorously suggesting Sehwag place his “orders” earlier next time. Their amusing banter continued, much to fans’ delight.

Thanks @virendersehwag bhai agli Baar Apna order time pe Bhej dena so Mai Apko agli Diwali ke pehle deliver kardunga ….happy Diwali

— Ross Taylor (@RossLTaylor) October 23, 2017

Has your Darji not done a good job this Diwali ๐Ÿ˜œ?

— Ross Taylor (@RossLTaylor) October 23, 2017
