Known for his tongue-in-cheek take on life and cricket, New Zealand all-rounder Jimmy Neesham believes focussing on the funny side of things helps him cope with difficult situations like the coronavirus pandemic currently sweeping through the world. Asked about the role humour plays in handling difficulties, the Black Caps all-rounder, who keeps his fans entertained with witty one-liners on his social media accounts, said it is vital when the going gets tough.
With the ICC finally terming it 'run out' and removing 'unfair play' in its rule book, the de-stigmatization of running players out at non-striker's has started.
Neesham feels the bio-security lapses could be due to the fact that the teams were travelling across the country.
