Video | Brett Lee disguises himself as old man to play some cricket with Mumbai kids
Brett Lee is synonymous with terrifying his opponents with his brute pace, but sometimes the veteran also prefers spreading smiles rather than fear. The former Aussie pacer disguised himself as an old man in order to head out and play cricket in an academy in the city of Mumbai.
Post his retirement, Aussie speedster Brett Lee has taken up various different jobs and has starred in a full-fledged feature film too. From sitting in the studio as a commentator to interviewing players on the pitch, Brett Lee has done it all. But, disguising himself as an old man just to play some cricket was something that the bowler had never done before, until now.
Lee, along with people from Star Sports, decided to surprise some Mumbai kids by transforming into an old man with long white hair and beard. The Australian pace took to the pitches in a long orange robe, which made him look more like a sadhu, to be honest.
He acted all innocent while the kids handed him instructions as to how to hold the bat and taught him a few basic shots as well. But it was not before long that the World Cup winner began to impress the kids with his epic shots and deadly pace before he finally decided to reveal his true identity to the curious bunch of youngsters.
A ragged, old man turned up at a local park to play cricket with the kids - little did they realise it was none other than @BrettLee_58! Watch many such unique stories only on #SuperSunday, on Star Sports. pic.twitter.com/hVPrdfiVQJ
