'English people can't pull off "y'all"'

In this week's Twitter round-up, cricketers devour and are themselves devoured; they attempt to outwit the weather; they make spectacularly inappropriate use of the term "lol"; and we also learn the nature of the very best thing in the world. That last one alone should be well worth the wait (but isn't, so don't get your hopes up).

The revelation
What can Beyoncé teach county cricketers?

A valuable lesson.

The dream meal
Not too many batsmen tucked into Matthew Hoggard during his international career. However…

Why was he admiring their fur?

The non-selection
There was no chance Kevin Pietersen was going to make England's World Twenty20 side, was there?

It's official. Kevin Pietersen is among Kevin Pietersen's mum's favourite cricketers.

The sports nutrition
It's important to eat well when you're a professional sportsman, and when you're the size of Chris Tremlett, it's also important to eat quite a lot.

The claim to fame
Did Herschelle Gibbs use a "lol" in reference to something taking place in a murder trial this week?

Yes, he did.

The chosen form of communication

The manipulator
David Warner thinks he can get what he wants.

Perhaps the weather isn't the only thing that isn't governed by a brain.

The TV review

Let's put that to Alex Hales.

That was, pretty much, the entire point of that series, Alex.

Life with Kemar Roach
It sounds like Kemar might be having some relationship issues. Fortunately, he knows how they can be overcome.

Find out whether he was deemed "worth it" next week. Possibly.

The best thing in the world
What is the best thing in the world?

That smacks of sarcasm.

But there is something better. Almost there…

That's… a bit disappointing.

Nando's Watch
Clearly, Ian Bell wants his son to grow up to become a cricketer. It's not just about hand-eye coordination, you know.

We can safely assume that the building was still standing and that it was the food that was demolished.

Jetlag Watch
Somewhere in the world, there is always a cricketer complaining about jet-lag.
