The day Brett Lee got his gear off (I wanted NMH's skinny little body on there, but would they listen??)

On Monday the 19th, the 2010 Men of Cricket calendar is released (for the benefit of the McGrath Foundation if you didn't know) and I am still trying to work out how I am going to get one.

In preparation for this, the Cricket Australia fan page on Facebook has been posting parts of photos and asking fans to guess who each one is. Most of them have caused a bit of discussion about who it may or may not be, which was the idea - create a buzz, get some chat going, get us excited about its release etc etc

And then they posted this one...


...and a pile of women fans got right on and commented, with no hesitation: "this is Brett Lee" "that's definnitely Brett Lee" and so on.

Other photos showed parts of mouths, eyes, profiles and people weren't 100% sure - but a lot of women seem to be able to recognise Brett Lee just by his naked torso!!

I have no idea who it is, but the female fan base of the Aussie cricket team are certain it is Mr Lee. We'll see on Monday.

Turns out this is actually Tim Paine - Brett Lee isn't even in the calendar! That'll disappoint a few people.

Tim Paine the 12 year old boy? Photoshop is a miracle worker eh?

It is - look how good it made Ritzy look! LOL!

Where can you find the full calendar? have they released it?

It came out yesterday (Monday 19th) but it is hard to get if you're not in Australia. It's on the 3 mobile website but it won't accept addresses outside of Aust so I have had to get my sister onto the case. She is going to send me one ... hehehe ... there are some behind the scenes pics here, which is where I stole this one from.
