And cricket fans can hardly contain their wait to catch a glimpse of their favourite team taking on their opponent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this time with IPL taking place overseas and the interruptions caused by the whole work from home chaos, the excitement is not the usual. Moreover, with COVID-19 playing a spoilsport, it would be right to say &#8211; gone are the days when cricket fans watched IPL on their job or hung out at a bar to catch the match on a big screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are a cricket buff and don\u2019t want to miss out on this year\u2019s IPL owing to the stress of work from home, you need not worry much. Like always, we have got your back!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a list of ways, we believe, you can let loose and enjoy IPL 2020 without compromising on your work from home schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nobrokerhood.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Blog-Images1-02-768x768.jpg\" alt=\"IPL and WFH\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Maintain regular hours:<\/strong> Work from home, though sounds relaxing, has its disadvantages too. To make life easy, maintain a routine for yourself and stick to it. Have it clearly charted out when to work, take a break, help around the house and when to call it a day; this can help you achieve a work-life balance. Remember that just because you work from home, that does not mean you need to invest your entire day to work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Balance out daily schedule:<\/strong> Work from home has now become synonymous with flexible work timing \u2013 leaving no extra room for a life outside of work. And before it\u2019s too late, it\u2019s time to take the phrase, \u2018All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy\u2019, a little too seriously.<br>For some, most of the day is spent in front of the computer system or they just end up working overtime. It is important to take a break and move away from your workstation to relax your mind and body.<br>Balancing out your daily routine can help you get enough time for both work and leisure activities. You can also sneak in some time to watch your team take on the scoreboard. And it\u2019s alright to do get that little time in between a hectic day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Take breaks:&nbsp;<\/strong>Taking one break is better than taking no breaks! Take breaks, just like you would on a regular office day. Whether or not you are working from home, breaks are an important part of a workday \u2013 even a short break of 10 to 15 minutes combined with a longer lunch break can make us feel mentally and physically fresh \u2013 ducking the probability of a potential work from home burnout.<br>Some studies suggest that employees who take regular breaks are more productive, better at decision making, attentive, and satisfied with their job. The sudden change of the work culture can be jarring for many and the unrealistic expectations of the employers can only add to the stress. What should be understood here is that work time is finite and needs to end at a suitable time.<br>Schedule your breaks on your google calendar or make use of technology such as Google assistance to remind you to set up recess time. This way, you can have a glance at the match and offer virtual support to them while you relax your mind.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nobrokerhood.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Blog-Images1-04-768x768.jpg\" alt=\"IPL and work from home\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Relive watching IPL together, virtually: <\/strong>Why let COVID-19 take over your enthusiasm for the game? Don\u2019t miss the opportunity to group watch a game or two, relieving those old office memories of watching IPL together with your colleagues.<br>Make use of technology and change the course. On a day when the workload is less, you can connect with each other through zoom meetings \u2013 stream the game and share your screen, let people enjoy a relaxing day \u2013 just like the good old days \u2013 but this time, virtually!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Streaming apps to the rescue: <\/strong>If you have kids at home, getting hold of the TV remote will be a daunting task. With kids\u2019 classes moving online with shorter school hours, kids tend to spend much of their time catching up on their favourite shows. And clearly, IPL is not their first choice. If the situation in your home is similar, you can make use of streaming apps and platforms to enjoy the game in your own company.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Give your kitchen a break: <\/strong>Imagine you are watching an intense match and it is a neck and neck competition. You don\u2019t want to miss even a fraction of the game but if you don\u2019t head to the kitchen, you know you are hitting the sack hungry.<br>In a situation like this, all you can think of is a warm, home-cooked meal, isn\u2019t it?<br>Well, you have a solution \u2013 order! Not from any food delivery apps but on NoBrokerHood\u2019s resident app.<br>Make use of the Home Chefs feature and order delicious homemade food \u2013 fresh, safe and made with love by your neighbours.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nobrokerhood.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/I-am-a-home-chef-NoBrokerHood.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With every one working from home, this IPL season might not be as exciting as the previous editions.
