There seems to be no separating cricket and Bollywood. After Bollywood stars Shah Rukh Khan [Images] and Preity Zinta [Images] staked their claim to the sport, it's the turn of the players to return the favour.

The players in question are Aussie cricketers Brett Lee [Images], Brad Hogg [Images], Stewart Clark and Mike Hussey, who are all set to shoot for the Bollywood film, Victory starring Harman Baweja and Amrita Rao [Images].

The team is expected to land in Jaipur on Friday for the two-day shoot.

The movie about the rags to fame story of an Indian cricketer, has been in the making for quite some time. A handful of Indian cricketers like R P Singh, Yusuf Pathan and Pravin Kumar are also expected to shoot for the film.

Directed by Ajit Pal, the film will have portions shot at the Adelaide Oval, the Sydney Cricket Ground and the Melbourne Cricket Ground. In fact, the Aussie cricketers have already shot for their parts in Australia during the Indian team's tour last year.

As for Brett Lee, this is not his first brush with Indian entertainment. The Australian fast bowler had appeared in a music video with Asha Bhonsle as well as a guest on Simi Garewal's [Images] show.
