The three-time Ashes winner was renowned as a fast bowler back in his playing days.

And the legend did not take it easy as Fox Sports host Howard had a go at wicket-keeping.

During a bowling challenge, Lee fired an inch-perfect ball at the stumps that hit the bails.

It sent them flying and they accidentally “impaled” Howard’s head.

Blood poured from his head as he shouted: “Oh geez, that was the bail.”

Filming was stopped for an hour-and-a-half as Howard was checked by doctors.

He was eventually given the all-clear and returned to the field.

Howard said: “I am proud to say I have a scar from the bowling of Brett Lee.”

The Aussie legend added: “I’ve seen him hunched over and I thought, ‘geez, what’s happened?’

“And I’ve realised the bail has flown through and impaled him right in the middle of the head.

“There was claret everywhere. He was bleeding pretty badly.

“There is no bailing out here. You are tough, I will give you that.”
