Bored during Pakistan's coronavirus lockdown, Test batsman Shan Masood put on his helmet, picked up his bat -- and Zoom cricket was born.

Masood, 30, was video-chatting with teammates when they grabbed their cricket gear and pretended to play a match.

"A couple of us guys were talking on Zoom and it was pretty late at night and somebody just picked up a ball," Masood told AFP.

"He had a ball (in) his hand and eventually all of us got kitted up and we played... a made-up cricket match."
