The Buzz: Pakistan women take up #DontRushChallenge
All the bantz, the jousts, and little bit of eavesdropping from the social media playground and beyond
All the world's cricketers walked into a bar. The LOLs, the chatter, and the occasional mini-brawls, they were endless. And the news cycle was never the same again! Welcome to ESPNcricinfo's Social Buzz, your go-to destination for all the bantz, the jousts, and little bit of eavesdropping from the social media playground and beyond.

No chance of any of Pakistan's women being timed out, given the speed with which they can change into their kit...
Punter's proudest moment
Time for some more classic kit from Ricky Ponting's coffin - this time the bat he used during the 2005 Ashes.

Harmanpreet Kaur's mirror magic
Mirror, mirror on the wall, what have you done with the ball? Nice to see Harmanpreet Kaur working on her trick shots.
On reflection, we're not too sure how to explain this one...

What Steven Smith's doing in lockdown
What is a very fit looking Steven Smith doing in lockdown other than working on his pecs? Exactly what he does in the shower, in hotel rooms, on the beach, in the lunch room, on the team bus. The man just really loves his batting.
Gautam Gambhir's grumpy throwback
And here's another player who just wants to be allowed to go back to his batting, Dad!
Jemimah Rodrigues and Smriti Mandhana's jam session
What are Smriti Mandhana and Jemimah Rodrigues doing in their spare time? Making sweet, sweet music together. Stand-up comic José Covaco seems to think it's quite the earworm too, if that third video is any indication.

Kapil Dev has a new lockdown look
Is it Viv Richards? Is it Thanos? No, it's Kapil Dev shorn of his luscious locks! Like Virat Kohli and Sachin Tendulkar before him, he's given himself a haircut while house-bound, only he's taken it a lot further. Also, where is he going dressed to the nines at this time?
DIY drills to stay sharp
Oof, sick burns by Dinesh Karthik or what? But also, curious why didn't R Sridhar, India's fielding coach, include MS Dhoni in the tweet. Are you going to practise these at home?
Or you could shoot hoops like KL Rahul (what's with the old-timey footage, though?)
Hmm, maybe don't try this at home.
Hardik Pandya at 18
Dog tags? Pink aviators? We'd know him anywhere.

Max Waller's teatime trick shots
Somerset legspinner Max Waller has been getting creative during lockdown, with a series of outrageous trick shots throwing teabags into mugs from across his kitchen.
And if his throwing skills aren't enough for you, how about his efforts with golf club in hand?
Dhoni gets his toe bitten
Imagine we do have an IPL or the T20 World Cup this year and MS Dhoni can't play because of an injured toe...
Sachin Tendulkar cuts his own hair
Sachin Tendulkar gave himself a hair cut (and made a terrible Dad joke about square cuts). What do you think of the final result? Are the best hair cuts ones that don't look like anything's been done?
The food you crave during lockdown
Who's not dreaming of all the food they are missing during the lockdown? Sanjay Manjrekar gets a version of a nostalgic favourite and now we're craving it too.
