Glenn McGrath promotes Cricket on the Wii

Cricketing legend and breast cancer awareness advocate Glenn McGrath has signed up as a brand ambassador for Codemasters' upcoming Wii Cricket game, Cricket. McGrath will appear in advertisements for the game and will flank Shane Warne and Sir Ian Botham at promotional events.

In a press release announcing McGrath's involvement, he said, "It’s always refreshing to see new and unique ways of bringing the game of cricket into lounge rooms across the country and being accessible to families."

Originally named Ashes Cricket 2009, like its Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions, the game has since been renamed "Cricket." Expect to see it bowl onto Aussie store shelves on November 5 this year.
