With no cricketing action around the world due to the global Coronavirus pandemic, the players have been enduring the boredom, as they are eagerly awaiting the live-action having been on a forced break since mid-March amid COVID-19 lockdown.

In absence of sports due to the COVID-19 crisis, all the sportspersons including cricketers are badly missing being on the field as they are confined to their home for the past three months due to the outbreak and India’s Test Vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane is no different.

Noteworthy, India is under the lockdown since March 22 because of the deadly outbreak of COVID-19, though, the government has given some relaxation to sportspersons to resume training with spectators not allowed inside the stadiums.

Taking on Instagram on Wednesday (May 28), Rahane has shared a throwback picture of him featuring India captain Virat Kohli, showing how much he is missing the game of cricket during this shutdown.

In the picture that was from a Test match, Rahane and Kohli both can be seen standing parallel to each other with a similar pose, possibly staring at the giant screen during the match.
