New Delhi: Amid the coronavirus lockdown imposed in nearly all countries around the world to fight the global pandemic , cricketers are using newer and unique ways on social media to spread the message of awarness regarding how to battle COVID-19.


Australian opening batsman David Warner devised a rather innovative way to show his support towards professionals who are currently battling the lethal coronavirus pandemic from the fore-front by shaving off his head.

The belligerant left handed opener also  posted a video on his Instagram handle on which he can be seen shaving his head with a trimmer. He also posted a photograph of his with a very short crop of hair with the message, ““Been nominated to shave my head in support of those working on the frontline #Covid-19 here is a time-lapse. I think my debut was the last time I recall I’ve done this. Like it or not”.


Medical and security professionals all over the world are currently risking their lives to go out and fight Covid-19 and Warner wanted to show his appreciation for the work they are doing.

Australia has been one of the worst affected countried by the deadly virus in the Southern Hemisphere.More than 4000 people have tested positive for the virus in the Island nation.

Warner also nominated the likes of Virat Kohli, Steve Smith, Pat Cummins, Marcus Stoinis among others to accept the challenge and shave their heads to show solidarity with those fighting to save the lives of others.
