The cricketing trends on social media revolved around a number of events. Brisbane Heat won their third match in a row in the ongoing Big Bash League (BBL). The team, led by Chris Lynn, defeated the Hobart Hurricanes by five wickets at The Gabba. Meanwhile, there was a controversy that sparked in the encounter. Matthew Wade was the only shining light for the visitors as the left-hander scored 61 runs before getting out to fast bowler Ben Cutting.

Wade smacked the leather downtown and Matt Renshaw, at long on, went for the catch. But the fielder pulled off the jugglery act and pushed the ball, jumping from outside the boundary hoarding. Tom Banton, who was backing up Renshaw, took the rebound. The cricketing fraternity reckoned that Wade should not have been given out. But thew laws formed by the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) stated that the catch was clean and within the laws.

Rashid Khan was over the moon after he picked up the hat-trick against the Sydney Sixers while representing the Adelaide Strikers. Mahmudullah Riyad posted a picture alongside Chris Gayle. Both are playing for the Chattogram Challengers in the 2019-20 edition of the Bangabandhu Bangladesh Premier League.

The Universe Boss also referred to Mahmudullah as his skipper. The Challengers have already made it through to the playoffs. David Warner is all set for the three-match ODI series against Virat Kohli’s India. Ravi Ashwin was delighted to meet Harbhajan Singh and Zaheer Khan on the sets of Dadagiri Unlimited on Zee Bangla.
