Australian cricket, for all their sledges and win-at-all-cost attitude, has produced the likes of Brett Lee. Lee has a deep bond with India. He is loved in this country and it’s no surprise why he keeps coming back. He has also acted in the 2015 Indo-Australian movie UnIndian. Lee is in India to commentate in the ongoing VIVO IPL 2018.
He recently surprised fans by going undercover, disguising himself as a ragged old man and playing cricket with kids in Mumbai’s iconic Shivaji Park.
