Ahead of the third and final Test between Australia and Pakistan to be played in Sydney from January 3 onwards, the visiting team had a surprise guest waiting to meet them. That guest was Will Symonds, son of late former Australia cricketer Andrew Symonds.

Notably, Andrew Symonds died aged 46 after being involved in a car crash last year. The all-rounder played 26 Tests, 198 one-day internationals, and 14 Twenty20s for Australia between 1998 and 2009. He was part of Australia’s World Cup wins in 2003 and 2007 and Ashes victory over England in 2006-07.
