Brett Lee was one of Australia's finest fast bowlers, establishing himself as a mainstay of Australia's golden era between 1999 and 2008.
His 76 career Test matches called forth a mammoth total of 310 wickets, which is the sixth-highest of all time for Australia. He also played 221 ODIs and 25 T20Is.
Lee weaponised his pace throughout his career, taking 10 Test 'five-fors' and averaging 20.15 and 17.81 in Tests and ODIs respectively.
We take a look at five of Brett Lee's career-best moments.
5. Biggest six at the Gabba
Lee's expertise was obviously focused around his fast bowling, but he proved to be a quirky pinch-hitter in the lower order too. Lee hit one of the biggest sixes ever in a Test match in 2005 against the West Indies - launching a monster shot over and out of the Gabba.

There is conjecture over how Lee was able to achieve such as feat and debate continues over whether it is the biggest six ever hit. It is thought that the shot's distance measured at around 130-135 metres.
The graphite-reinforced bat that Lee used in that innings ended up being banned by the ICC a few months later.
