Cricket players are known for sharing friendships on the ground and even off the field, and sometimes we get to see a glimpse of it thanks to social media platforms.
Such was the case when South African fast bowler Dale Steyn tried to troll his team mate Morne Morkel on Twitter, but ended up being trolled back by Morkel’s spouse.
Steyn tweeted a picture of Morkel holding baby diapers and referred to the times when he would be holding pizza instead.
Although Morkel did not respond to the post, but his wife did and offered Steyn a chance to make a bit of pocket money.
If you think Steyn would be offended by this, you are wrong. Keeping the sportsmanship alive even off the field, Steyn said he’s been babysitting for the last two weeks and is up for the job.
Morkel and Steyn are currently playing in Indian Premier League, representing Kolkata Knight Riders Gujarat Lions respectively.
