The star looked relaxed as he sat in a box at the WACA Ground in the city.

He wore a light brown jacket over a white T-shirt with the message "Anarchy in the U.K." emblazoned across the front.

Russell chose to wear a pair of worn jeans which were made to look old with a number of holes in the legs.

He completed his casual look by wearing a pair of sandals and wore a grey hat on his head and hid behind a pair of dark sunglasses.
