MELBOURNE - Former Australian cricketing greats Ricky Ponting and Shane Warne will temporarily come out of retirement to play in a charity Twenty20 match next month as sports organisations and athletes seek ways to raise funds for bushfire relief.
Current national coach Justin Langer will also play in the game on Feb. 8 along with former captain Michael Clarke and vice captain Adam Gilchrist, Cricket Australia said in a statement on Sunday. The charity game would act as a curtain raiser for the Big Bash match, with the venue not confirmed until the two teams for the final are determined.
