The entire world is currently suffering from the COVID-19 pandemic. Everything has been stopped, and people are forced to spend time at home as most countries have gone for lockdown so that the authorities could minimise the spread of Coronavirus.
Indian cricketers are also staying at their residences and spending time with their family as the country is facing a 21-day lockdown. In the process, many players have engaged in various activities to pass the time as well as get an opportunity to interact with fans.
Recently, cricketers like Rohit Sharma, Shreyas Iyer, and Virat Kohli got involved in the live chat on social media platforms where they talked about many interesting things. Now, Indian Test team’s vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane has also joined the exclusive club.
