In quarantine since March, the IPL 2021 commentators have been handed the tough job of trying to look presentable without much outside help. Ordinarily used to an army of stylists and hairdressers helping them prepare before they go onscreen, the Star Sports contingent have had to adapt to their new circumstances with some creative problem-solving. Among these legends, Australian fast bowling legend Brett Lee is receiving particularly rave reviews for a set of skills that we have never seen from him.

Brett Lee turns hairdresser inside IPL 2021 bubble

In lockdown at the IPL 2021, where he is a part of the esteemed panel on the Select Dugout show, Brett Lee has reportedly turned his exceptional skills to the art of cutting hair. In a video shared by New Zealand all-rounder and longtime Dugout member Scott Styris, it was revealed that in the absence of a hairdresser in the broadcast team's bubble, Brett Lee has taken up the duty of getting everyone screen ready. The Aussie can be seen giving Styris a stylish new fade in his hotel room, which, by the looks of it, seems to have been quite successful.

Sharing some banter after the video, Brett retweeted Styris' video clip, asking him for some payment for his precious services, writing: "Leave the [money] on the fridge". The duo also replied to some fans' comments, with Styris writing that he should now learn how to actually pull off such a fancy haircut and Lee reacting to a comment suggesting that he should have just used a bowl to cut the hair instead of putting such an effort. Here is the Select Dugout IPL 2021 commentators list: Scott Styris, Brett Lee, Dominic Cork, Brian Lara, Graeme Swann with guests, Kevin Pietersen, Shane Watson, Ross Taylor, Dale Steyn and Nasser Hussain.
