It is that time again!
Time for some funny cricket tweets.
With hilarious content a regular feature from cricket fans out there, this could easily be a daily piece. But, like India vs Sri Lanka cricket matches, you don’t want overkill.
Over the last week or so, there have been some beauties from cricket fans all over the globe. Here are a selection of my favourites!
Funny Cricket Tweet #1: Too far, man…
This one from @mufaddal_vohra had me in stitches, so much so that a couple of awesome followers @imsgshinde and @Goel_Eakansh actually knew this would be part of the next “Funny Tweets” article.
An even bigger prank is Mitchell Marsh being Australia Vice-Captain, but that’s a discussion for another day…
Funny Cricket Tweet #2: Equal contributions!
Australia’s call to have two Vice-Captains has already paid dividends, with both members contributing equally to the amazing Dubai draw.
Josh Hazlewood was at home.
Brilliant stuff, @pavilionopinion!
Funny Cricket Tweet #3: When I felt I couldn’t be more nervous…
As the nerves really kicked in towards the end of Australia’s quest to save the Dubai Test, @imsgshinde thought it was a good idea to remind us all of Shannon Gabriel’s infamous slog with just 1.1 overs left against Pakistan last year. Then I imagined Nathan Lyon and Jon Holland doing it, and got even more scared…
Still, despite the extra nerves, it was a great tweet! Gabriel to get an IPL contract?
Funny Cricket Tweet #4: Gabriel showing us what the Aussies should have done…
What a caption by @ThatoMamathuba…
“You have me batting by the 46th over? Stuff you.”
A good laugh.
Funny Cricket Tweet #5: Somebody try catch him…
Imran Tahir won man of the series in the T20Is v Zimbabwe, even after playing just one match.
His bowling was on point, and so is this tweet by @ShozEEE.
Trying to catch Imran Tahir when he gets a wicket is no easy task. Does he do the same thing in the nets at training? Just imagining the batsman trying to give the ball back to Tahir as he sprints off….
Funny Cricket Tweet #6: Experts. Experts everywhere…
@brainfadesmith highlights just how T20 cricket can bring out silly statements…
Does anybody enjoy patient batting anymore? The face in this tweet is spot on!
Funny Cricket Tweet #7: CT17 Forever…
I love a great reply.
The first Pakistan v Australia Test got so ugly that I just had to ask if any rain was forecast in the desert. @YASH385 replied with a tweet all Indian fans will appreciate.
Yash, apologies for not following you sooner. I have now.
Funny Cricket Tweet #8: Those Marsh Brothers…
Hey Valentina, the answer to this question is simple. Cheers @sheeds8 for voicing the concern of many Australians ahead of the big series against India.
Amid the second innings carnage with the score on 87, the chuckle was a welcome relief.
Funny Cricket Tweet #9: The Spirit of Cricket…
@unofficial_CSA with a ripper. Good thing was unofficial not official, as that would have raised a few eyebrows…
Tabraiz Shamsi struggled a little against Zimbabwe, and to give lesser nations a chance, it’s only fair he plays. Harsh, but chuckle worthy!
Funny Cricket Tweet #10: Just a flick of the switch…
The likes of Tom Moody took to Twitter to voice their displeasure at the Dubai pitch on the first day of the first Pakistan v Australia Test.
Big mistake. Cricket fans were never going to let him get away with it.
@CrickPotato1 showed Pakistan switching to road when batting, and minefield when bowling. Trolling done so right than even an Aussie appreciates it. Great tweet!
Funny Cricket Tweet #11: Three wickets for 87…
On a wearing pitch against Pakistan aiming for a win, wasting reviews is something I thought Australia must avoid.
@ambade_akash made a great point. Aaron Finch knew the Marsh boys were coming next so took a chance. Still can’t believe the Test was saved from 87/3!
Funny Cricket Tweet #12: Excited for a different reason…
@Karangillaus had people around me asking what was going on as I burst into laughter.
I’m still in stitches writing this. That expression is just so common that people are even looking forward to them now. So good.
Still laughing.
Funny Cricket Tweet #13: 400/0 or forget it
After a first innings collapse, @LordShastri put it perfectly in Australia’s second innings…
Target = 462. First innings collapse 10/60. Out of touch Marsh brothers to come.
Had a good chuckle at his one.
Funny Cricket Tweet #14: HAHAHAHA. A poll for the ages.
Remember when Hasan Ali said that he is aiming to take all ten wickets in an innings vs India in the Asia Cup?
@Holdthedoor19 hasn’t forgotten, with a poll for the ages! Funny stuff.

So, there are my favourite tweets from the past week.
Kudos to all who compiled them!
Stay tuned for the next edition in a week’s time.
Thanks for reading!
