Episode 8 | Brett Lee | Breakfast with Champions Season 6

Our next champion's resume is quite interesting to say the least. He has worked as a suit salesman, collaborated with a Bollywood legend, and done a stint as a pig handler! The 50th episode of Breakfast with Champions also happens to be the most fast-paced one. In conversation with Gaurav Kapur, Brett Lee takes a walk down memory lane and talks about his long-term affair with India.

Craving some more? Episode 9 comes out on June 21st. Don’t forget to tune in!

When I was 9, My parents also asked me what I wanted to do when I grow up?
I said " I want to play Cricket for India"
My parents removed the cable connection the next day until I graduated from Engineering.
