All the world's cricketers walked into a bar. The LOLs, the chatter, and the occasional mini-brawls, they were endless. And the news cycle was never the same again! Welcome to ESPNcricinfo's Social Buzz, your go-to destination for all the bantz, the jousts, and little bit of eavesdropping from the social media playground and beyond.

It's that time of the year when weird and wonderful fauna gather to display their most ostentatious plumage, or, as the rest of the world knows it, fashion week. And ever so often, fashion throws up something so inexplicable, it leaves everyone... er... stumped. Exhibit A:
"This is a reminder of how powerful sport is and what magic it does to all of our lives."

A God for a nation. An inspiration worldwide.

We have a lot of questions. Was the model in the middle of a game of cricket when she was interrupted by fashion week? Is this how models pass the time between shows? Is this what cricketers do in the dressing room? Is that why it's called a dressing room?
Stuart Broad, though, thought it was a perfectly sensible move, while Jimmy Anderson had already got his strategy figured out.
