Neesham was picked by IPL franchise Delhi Daredevils for IPL 7. The next year, he was picked by the Kolkata Knight Riders for IPL 8, but did not play a single match for them due to injury and was dropped from the squad the very next season. In the 2020 IPL auction, he was bought by the Kings XI Punjab ahead of the 2020 Indian Premier League.[7] In February 2021, Neesham was bought by the Mumbai Indians in the IPL auction ahead of the 2021 Indian Premier League.

And that's around .043 follower per kiwi (5.5 mil) compared to Rohit's .017 (1.1 bil). You clearly win.

Almost 30% of His followers must be Indian while NZlanders don't follow their own cricketers forget what they gonna follow anyone else. His tweet doesn't make sense.
