The impact of Coronavirus is being felt all over the world. Not only is it becoming a reason for people to go into lockdown, but also the reason for events being postponed. However, the world of cricket is taking a different approach to this pandemic threat. Almost all games are taking place without a live audience i.e., behind closed doors. Now, Lockie Ferguson realises the power of the audience.

Recently, during the match between New Zealand and Australia, a moment transpires which shows the importance and value of spectators. Australian skipper, Aaron Finch, opts to bat after winning the toss. The game was proceeding as expected. However, there comes a moment when New Zealand fast bowler, Lockie Ferguson, is seen running up to the stands to retrieve the ball.

If the audience is present, then during such situations, they are the ones who throw the ball back. Unfortunately, due to their absence, Lockie Ferguson himself had to run to the stands from the field.

Here is how Twitter reacts to Ferguson’s throw
