The Sydney Morning Herald is reporting a celebrity match of cricket this Monday on the community sports field in the Los Angeles San Fernando Valley. (very close were I live!)
This match is to celebrate The G'day USA Australia week in the US, which shows awareness of Australian companies in fields such as food, wine and films, and encouraging Americans to visit Australia.
THE cricket will be played on a modest oval in suburban Los Angeles, but the players in this Ashes contest are anything but ordinary.
Russell Crowe as wicketkeeper, Mel Gibson in first slip, Steve Waugh directing the action, and Mike Whitney shaking up England openers Mick Jagger and Rod Stewart. To add to the magic, England's boy wizard Daniel "Harry Potter" Radcliffe will be there too.
Waugh thinks Radcliffe, with or without his magic wand, could be the dark horse.
"I know Robbie Williams is a big soccer fan and I'm not sure about Jude Law, but I know Daniel Radcliffe loves his cricket so I'd say he'd be the danger man," Waugh said.
(Take this as a rumor since nothing has been confirmed from Dan's rep)
