    "editor1": "<p><strong>Sydney, April 14:<\/strong>&nbsp;The world might have come to a standstill due to the coronavirus outbreak, but that has not stopped sportspersons from training indoors and in a latest video, Australia batsman Marnus Labuschagne can be seen training with his pet dog.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The batsman posted the video on Twitter and wrote: &quot;Thought that we had to give this one a try... tough to tell who is enjoying the backyard training more #StayHome #StaySafe #milo.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>He was earlier seen taking throwdowns with a taped tennis ball from his friend while his pet dog was acting as a wicketkeeper to make sure the run-machine loses none of his batting skills during the lockdown period.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I have for the last couple of days, just because I&#39;ve missed it,&quot; Labuschagne told Melbourne&#39;s SEN Radio when asked about his return to batting after Australia&#39;s ODI series against New Zealand was called off last month.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I&#39;m lucky enough that I&#39;ve actually got one of my best mates living with me at the moment. He&#39;s in isolation with me. So me and him are getting a few throw downs, and doing a bit of training.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Labuschagne was named alongside compatriots Pat Cummins and Ellyse Perry among Wisden Almanack&#39;s Players of the Year. England&#39;s Ben Stokes and Perry were named the Leading Cricketers of 2019 by Wisden Almanack.<\/p>\r\n",
