The former Australia player Matthew Hayden is currently in India for his stint of commentary in the ongoing 12th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). However, he took to Instagram and shared a post recently. In his latest post, Hayden was seen wearing a lungi and hiding his identity with a fake beard, moustache and a fisherman’s hat and roamed around in the busy lanes in Chennai’s T Nagar for some shopping. However, he has also mastered the art of bargaining as he managed to buy a wrist watch worth Rs. 200 for Rs. 180. “Bit of undercover shopping at T Nagar Street Mall in Chennai,” wrote Hayden on his Instagram.

Later Hayden revealed that the former Australia player Shane Warne had earlier challenged him to buy things for under Rs. 1000.
“It was a challenge by Warne to buy items for under Rs 1000. That’s why I went around the market to buy some lungis, shirts, Rajini sunnies and a watch,” Hayden told the Times of India. “I paid the boy Rs 100. And I can proudly tell you that I won the challenge (with Warne),” Hayden added.
