The Courier Mail is one of a slew of sources reporting that a 36 year old former IT worker, Bryce McGain, is about to get a call up to play Test Cricket for Australia. Until last year McGain had a successful job working in IT for the ANZ bank, before taking a significant pay cut to pursue the possibility of playing international cricket.
Previously McGain has indicated that his long IT career has left him in the ideal physical condition to play at the international level, "I'm feeling really fresh, physically," he said. "Most first-class cricketers at 35 have had the workload of ten years of cricket and I haven't. Hopefully I've got a lot of years to come.""
