All the world's cricketers walked into a bar. The LOLs, the chatter, and the occasional mini-brawls, they were endless. And the news cycle was never the same again! Welcome to ESPNcricinfo's Social Buzz, your go-to destination for all the bantz, the jousts, and little bit of eavesdropping from the social media playground and beyond.

Good on Yuvraj Singh for encouraging people to keep spirits (and balls) up while in lockdown...
...although Sachin Tendulkar straight away went and raised the stakes.

Steve Smith gives Kane Williamson latte art lessons

This lockdown bantz is getting out of hand. The internet's boyfriend Kane Williamson yesterday debuted his latte art on Instagram, trying to conjure up a white fern in his flat white. BFF Virat Kohli obviously jumped into the comments with a "Looks good bro. Not as elegant as that backfoot punch of yours though," because you can't pass up a chance at bromance in this time of social distancing. Steve Smith, though, thought he'd use the opportunity to rekindle the trans-Tasman rivalry. Who did it better?

Shoaib Akhtar has a plan for Steven Smith

Yesterday, we imagined a few legendary match-ups between top players across eras, and asked readers which contest they would have most liked to watch. Quite a few players chimed in.
Dimuth Karunaratne picked a contest between Neil Wagner and Brian Lara.
Isa Guha cheated a bit and picked two.
But we had one of the many legends weigh in himself. Shoaib Akhtar reckons he could have Steven Smith out in four balls - one bounce, two bounce, three bounce, door.
