The Buzz: Stuart Broad, headband warrior
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.

We're a little worried about David Warner. Make no mistake, we're loving this swimsuit-wearing, lip-syncing, Bollywood-dancing Davey, but how far and to what inadvisable places will this quest for social media love take him? Today it's corn on the drill. What's next? Brushing teeth with a chainsaw? Riding on top of trains? We'd like him to have all his limbs intact for when cricket resumes, preferably.
How old is Mahela Jayawardene really?
Should we believe Kumar Sangakkara?

Mark Wood obliterates the speed gun
Or does he?
Masterchef Sachin does things to mangoes
Do you have lots of mangoes at home and don't know what to do with them (because for some reason you don't think eating them plain is the greatest thing on this planet)? If yes, you freak, spend the whole day making this this mango kulfi recipe by Sachin Tendulkar.

Ravi Shastri gets a dressing down
After reading our colleague Sharda Ugra's excellent piece on Ravi Shastri the anti-establishment man last week, we started wondering what he might be up to. Thanks for letting us know, Ravi, and very envious of the company you keep.
Meanwhile, Mohammed Shami had to make a double-batch of this mouth-watering Eid spread to send it across to his coach.
David Warner becomes the invisible man
Is he auditioning for the sequel?
Missed all the chatter last week? Catch up on it here.
