Brett Lee missed this year’s World Cup with an ankle injury but he is guaranteed to star at the next one. As David Sygall reports in the Sun-Herald, Lee has been asked to produce and perform the theme song for the 2011 World Cup to be held on the subcontinent.
Lee had other things to think about at the Gabba, where he spearheaded Australia's solid bowling effort against Sri Lanka. His team-mate Stuart MacGill, on the other hand, would have been disappointed to finish the first innings with just one wicket, according to Peter Roebuck in the Sunday Age.
In the same paper Damien Fleming compares MacGill to the late comedian Rodney Dangerfield – both “don’t get no respect”.
Also in the Sunday Age Amanda Dunn chats to Richie Benaud, Bill Lawry and co about the 30 years they have spent in the Channel 9 commentary box.
And in the Sunday Telegraph Terry Jenner calls for Muttiah Muralitharan's action to be tested in Test-match conditions, while Arjuna Ranatunga hands out some rare praise for Ricky Ponting's captaincy.
