Sportspersons all around the world are asking people to stay at home during this coronavirus crisis engulfing the world. Covid-19 has spread around the world and has halted the daily functioning of life. The pandemic has forced the world to sit at home to stop the spread of the disease. The sporting world has been impacted as tournaments and events had to be cancelled and postponed due to the outbreak.
During this time, Indian cricketer Ravindra Jadeja found a unique way to spread awareness among the masses to stay indoors. Jadeja posted a video of himself sending Australian batsman Usman Khawaja back to the pavilion with a direct hit in 2019 at the Adelaide Oval. Khawaja went for a quick single but Jadeja picked up the ball and hit the wickets on the non-striker’s end to send him packing.
“Stay safe, stay at home. Runout matt hona @foxcricket @cricketcomau,” read the caption on Jadeja’s post.
