With daily routines now a thing of the past and the lives, and work habits, of many taking a dramatic shift, CasinoBeats is taking a few minutes out to enjoy a few of the brighter, quirky and touching moments that social media has served up in the last week.
So if you like a good lucky story, fancy a giggle or two or simply need any kind of sporting fix to get over the wave of cancellations, we hope the below satisfies those cravings.
Cricket fix!
Creativity among sports stars and fans worldwide is only going to heighten during the next few weeks and months with global cancellations, quite rightly, set to continue.
