Serbian tennis star Novak Djokovic switched his weapon of choice from racquet to bat in Melbourne ahead of the Australian Open.

The 29-year-old, who is ranked number two in the world, picked up a cricket bat in the event called “A Night with Novak”, the Serb’s charity event, and played a few shots off Australian great Shane Warne’s bowling on the tennis court.
