Sports stars across the world continue to find new ways to amuse themselves during the coronavirus pandemic.
Here, the PA news agency looks at some of the best examples from June 6.
Cricket
Former England bowler Darren Gough is pessimistic about his chances during ‘The Race: Wheels for Heroes’ on Zwift on Sunday night.
Four-time Tour de France winner Chris Froome will set off last in the pursuit-style race, chasing down a host of sports stars and celebrities including Kevin Pietersen, England rugby union international Maro Itoje, golfer Lee Westwood, former Manchester United winger Ryan Giggs, singer Olly Murs and Gough to raise money for charity.
Pietersen and Froome came up with the idea as the pair aim to donate 1,000 bikes to NHS key workers.
