How did you enjoy this fashion shoot for Maxim, Pup?

I had a great day. The Maxim crew were fantastic, a lot of fun, brilliant to work with and we shot at a great venue at Pink Salt restaurant, Sydney.

Do you consider yourself a bit of a fashionista?

No, not really. I have my own style, and I know what I feel comfortable in, and that’s what fashion is about—express yourself any way you like.

How would you describe your fashion style?

It depends on the occasion. I like to look smart, but comfort is still my number one priority.

What’s the most embarrassing outfit you’ve ever worn in your life?

Anything my mum used to dress me in as a kid—sandals and socks were her speciality.

Has your wife, Kyly, ever frowned at anything you’ve worn in public?

I don’t think so—not that I know of. Well, not to my face, anyway!

What have you been up to since you retired from cricket?
