The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the cancellation or postponement of almost all sporting events in the world. The sport of cricket has been greatly impacted too as most international tours stand cancelled and the Indian Premier League has been postponed indefinitely. With a lot of free time at hand, some cricketers have become super active on social media. While Virat Kohli has featured in a number of Instagram live sessions, Steve Smith has been imparting batting lessons. However, it is David Warner who has been most entertaining. The opening batsman has become a TikTok star ever since the lockdown was imposed in Australia due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On Thursday, he was joined by former England batsman Kevin Pietersen and former Indian cricketer-turned commentator Aakash Chopra for another amusing video.
