| Virender Sehwag’s tweets come imprinted with his earthy humour (tweets below) |

Giving unexpected turns is what Virender Sehwag specialises in.
After training as an off-spinner, he became a cricket legend for his devastating batting.
After retiring, instead of settling in some boring cricketing gig, Virender Sehwag opted to become a social media star.
Almost every tweet of his, which comes imprinted with his earthy humour goes viral, driving fans nuts.
And he seems to relish in sending birthday wishes. When it was Allan Border’s birthday he noted that Indians had made a movie called Border, while Australians were yet to make a film called Gavaskar.
Jonty Rhodes was wished as a player who played cricket as well as chidiya ud (bird fly) on the field. Who would have thought that Sober was soberm, the way he batted, was another gem.
On the extremely tall bowler Jacob Oram’s birthday, Virender Sehwag said facing him was like getting a delivery from a second floor.
As someone noted, Virender Sehwag’s tweets are so funny, they read like arsenal from a parody account.
