Glenn McGrath was mobbed by hundreds of legendary cricket commentator Richie Benaud's disciples outside the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) before the second day's play to show support for his Foundation and Jane McGrath Day on Thursday.
The annual Pink Test at the SCG saw 300 doppelgangers of cricket commentator Benaud fill the stands with mikes in their hands.
The year 2015 marks the seventh year of association between Cricket Australia and McGrath Foundation and the sixth time the Richie lookalikes have attended the Sydney Test as a mark of respect to Benaud.
From the original 10 impersonators, they have grown to a group of 300.
Michael Hennessey, one of the foundation Richies told Cricket Australia's website, "Like all good things, there was a few guys hanging around having a beer and discussing things,"
