Social Media has given an opportunity for the fans to know more about their favorite faces in the cricketing world. We find almost every cricketer having their official twitter handle in the age of social media.

Cricketers keep us updated on what they are up to and express their feeling, wishing fellow cricketers on their birthdays, anniversaries, etc.

Their pictures, parties, dressing room situations, adventures, special moments we get to know every moment of their lives.

One of the most popular faces on Twitter from the cricketing world is none other than the dashing Indian opener, Virender Sehwag. He never fails to wish his fellow celebrities with his unique birthday wishes.

Almost all the current cricketers use the social media to enlarge their reach and create a communication channel. An achievement in some corner of the cricket world is immediately appreciated by his teammates and former cricketers via Twitter.

Twitter has become the major platform for cricketers to express themselves. However, there are still a few cricketers who are yet to join Twitter. Here we take a look at three popular cricketers who are yet to join Twitter:


#3 Piyush Chawla

Chawla has been an integral member of the KKR franchise

The Kolkata Knight Riders' leg-spinner, Piyush Chawla is yet to join Twitter. He is out of the national team for a long time now. However, the 29-year-old is an important member of Kolkata Knight Riders squad. In the 11th edition of Indian Premier League, he has played 15 games and taken 14 wickets at an economy of 8.40.

He made his IPL debut for Kings XI Punjab in 2008 and spent six seasons with them. In 2014, he was bought by Kolkata Knight Riders and he played a crucial role for KKR in IPL 2014.

It should be noted that the leg-spinner, Chawla is not a social media person. He does not have official accounts on either Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.

Chawla made his International debut back in the year 2006 as a 17-year-old kid but he has gone on to represent India in only three Tests.

He has played 25 games for India and picked up 32 wickets. But, he was ignored by the selectors due to poor form and fitness as well. Chawla should work hard on his fitness to find his place in the national team

#2 Tim Southee

New Zealand v England - 2nd ODI
Southee is one of the best bowlers New Zealand has ever produced

The New Zealand fast bowler, Tim Southee is yet to join the popular social media platform, Twitter. Undoubtedly, he is one of the best bowlers New Zealand has ever produced. He is one of the most dangerous new ball bowling pairs in the cricket along with Trent Boult.

He was the part of Royal Challengers Bangalore in the last edition of Indian Premier League (IPL) season.

He did not get much opportunity in the first half of the tournament. He has picked up five wickets in eight games that he played in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2018.

Southee has played 60 Tests, 133 ODI's and 50 T20I's and taken 220, 176 and 62 wickets respectively. He is one of the New Zealand bowlers, who has five-wicket-haul in all three format of the game.

#1 Kane Williamson

Williamson is arguably one of the greatest players of this generation

The New Zealand skipper, Kane Williamson is one of the three popular cricketers, who are yet to join Twitter. He is arguably one of the greatest players of this generation along with Virat Kohli, Steve Smith, and Joe Root.

He is staying away from social media that helps him concentrate on his game and family. He is a phenomenal batsman in all three formats of the game. Williamson announced his International arrival as a Test player, but he improved him as a limited-overs game player as well.

Williamson can hit boundaries but he is not the batsman who can consistently slog hard. In the last edition of Indian Premier League (IPL) season, he led his team, Sunrisers Hyderabad to the finals and lost the final to Chennai Super Kings.
