After starting their pre-season tour with a high in Australia, English Premier League side Manchester United has now travelled to Singapore. But they did not leave Australia before trying their hands at the country’s national sport, cricket.

On Friday, Manchester United tweeted a video in which the manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was seen playing cricket at the iconic WACA in Perth, Australia. However, the United manager did not seem to have a good time at it as got out off the only ball he faced in the video, which read, “We couldn’t leave the WACA without playing cricket! Any tips for the boss, @EnglandCricket? #MUTOUR #MUFC”.

In Australia, Manchester United played two matches as a part of their pre-season tour. Both the matches were played at the Optus Stadium in Perth. The ‘Red Devils’ defeated the home team Perth Glory 2-0 in their first match, before rallying on to register victory against their traditional rivals Leeds United with a scoreline of 4-0.
