Cricket fans’ hearts melted after Andrew Symonds’ children made a heartwarming cameo on Fox Sports during the New Year’s Test.
Will and Chloe Symonds ducked into the studio on Thursday when rain interrupted play and immediately stole the show in adorable scenes.
In a chat with Mark Howard, Adam Gilchrist and Kerry O’Keefe, the children of Australian legend Symonds – who died in a car crash in May 2022 aged 46 – spoke about their love of cricket and their thoughts on the game in Sydney.
Howard introduced the youngsters, “We’re going to go to the commentary box and watch these two rock stars.
‘This is Will and Chloe Symonds, obviously Andrew and Laura’s children. Chloe, can you give us an update on the weather conditions first? What do you think is happening there?’

Chloe replied, “It doesn’t look like it’s clearing up too well, so I don’t think the game will go ahead.”
Howard joked, “Finally some honesty, Chloe! We said it will go away.”
Will, an aspiring cricketer, revealed he was treated to training with Pakistani superstar Babar Azam, while he was given the same bat as Travis Head for his birthday late last year.
He described himself as ‘an all-rounder in batting, but I also keep an eye on something’.
‘It’s actually going fantastic, but my team isn’t doing so well. We haven’t won a game yet, but hopefully we can win a game after the holidays.’
Chloe said she is a keen footy player and represents Balmain.
