Australia Prime Minister Anthony Albanese hosted the India and Australia cricket teams on Wednesday, January 1 ahead of the fifth Test at Sydney Cricket Ground in Sydney. The Australian PM shared glimpses of the meeting on his social media handles where the Indian and Australian players could be seen posing for photographs.
In one of the pics, Albanese was seen showing something to Virat Kohli from his phone as the duo had a laugh about it. Australian captain Pat Cummins could be seen addressing the gathering while legendary Australia fast bowler Glenn
McGrath was seen presenting the pink cap from the McGrath foundation to the Australian PM.
The New Year’s Test in Sydney is a special event where the ‘Jane McGrath day’ is celebrated on Day 3 of the game. Notably, Jane was Glenn McGrath’s ex wife who lost her live due to breast cancer in 2008. In 2005, Jane and Glenn together co-founded the McGrath Foundation, a charitable organization focused on raising funds to support breast care nurses in rural and regional areas of Australia. The foundation also works to enhance breast cancer awareness among young women.
