**Sydney, Australia** – A bizarre incident involving former Australian fast bowler Brett Lee has left commentator Mark Howard with a head injury requiring stitches. The injury occurred during a promotional video shoot for Fox Cricket in Sydney on December 4th.
Lee, known for his blistering pace throughout his career, was bowling when a ball struck the bails, causing them to catapult upwards and hit Howard in the face. The impact resulted in a significant head wound, with Howard’s face reportedly covered in blood. He was immediately taken to Royal Prince Alfred Hospital for treatment and received stitches.
Lee, himself surprised by the incident, stated that he had never witnessed anything like it in his professional career. Howard, despite the injury, is expected to continue his commentary duties for the upcoming Adelaide Test match. This isn’t Lee’s first such incident; he previously injured UK TV host Piers Morgan during a net session in 2013. The Adelaide Test match begins amidst this unusual pre-match drama.
