Everybody loves Dale Steyn. There’s no disputing that. He’s one of the few cricketers you just cannot hate, even when he’s playing against Team India. And what he did in Chittagong the other day will only make you more fond of him.
It was the afternoon of Friday, 24th July, and Steyn was stuck in his room after the 4th Day of South Africa’s first Test against Bangladesh was washed off.
Stuck in my room all day, watching these kids playing soccer in the rain looks like plenty fun… #shouldigo pic.twitter.com/0bv7bK45qr

The number 1 Test bowler in the world watched the kids from his window for a while before he decided to ignore protocol and decided to join them in the fun.
I may have just broken every security protocol, my coach won’t be happy, but this was just to good to… https://t.co/YPQRAh2FXX
