Bright "Pink" lining to grey Sydney skies!

The Sydney Cricket Ground marked Jane McGrath day today, as part of the "Pink" test match. Although the rain washed out the day's play between Australia and West Indies, but the traditional high tea that marks the third day of the new year test, went ahead with great gusto.

The McGrath Foundation holds this annual event, to raise funds to fight breast cancer. Despite continuous rain for the past two days, the Pink test has already raised over $166,000 this year.

Thanks to Gurnam and Manu for sharing these wonderful photos with SBS Punjabi!!
