It's not a comeback and it's not even a testimonial, but Shane Warne is likely to play in a charity match at the MCG this month after farewelling the ground at the Boxing Day Test. Chloe Saltau reports in The Age that funds from the Twenty20 clash will go to the Shane Warne Foundation, which supports sick and underprivileged children.
The game is expected to feature a mixture of recently retired cricketers and celebrities, with one team captained by Warne and the other by former tennis star Pat Rafter. Ex-footballer Garry Lyon, fast bowler Jason Gillespie and comedian Dave Hughes are also among those invited to play.
