Australian batsman Mitchell Johnson has reportedly got his popular handlebar moustache shaved off by wife Jessica.
As part of raising money for men’s health charity Movember, Johnson had grown the moustache in late last year, but decided to keep it for the duration of Australia’s 5-0 Ashes whitewash over England.
According to stuff.co.nz, Johnson said that he really enjoyed having the mo, the dirty mo, adding that they were able to raise close to 40,000 Australian dollars.
