Cricket fans who turned out to watch Australia take on South Africa this week were hit for six when Hollywood star Russell Crowe went along to join them. The Oscar-winner had his hands full with two-year-old son Charles as he took his place in the stands of Sydney Cricket Ground.

Russell is well-known for his love of sport, but on Wednesday morning all his attention was focused on his son. And little Charles, who bears a striking resemblance to his famous dad, looked every inch the junior heart-throb, with the word "handsome" emblazoned across his t-shirt.

According to reports Down Under, the tyke may soon have a baby brother or sister, as his mum Danielle is said to be expecting a second child. For the moment, however, he seems happy to enjoy some quality time with his proud father, who has recently finished work on the romantic drama A Good Year.

Since Charles made his big debut in December 2003, the hunky actor has made a determined effort to lighten his workload and put more energy into family life. That's not to say he has turned his back on Tinseltown completely, though. In a few months time he is expected to team up with old friend Nicole Kidman on a new movie that will be directed by fellow Australian Baz Luhrman.
