Tim said he was excited to play alongside "celebrities that used to be Black Caps", and he readily admitted he'd like to take the wicket of McMillan, who he identified as the biggest threat to his team.
Dan said he was surprised when he heard his name had been drawn, and it was only just dawning on him.
"I was pretty surprised, I didn't realise how big it was until a couple of days ago. I've heard that we've got a couple hundred people coming, they're putting all the stands up ... We're getting our shirts and our whites done."
The idea for the inaugural competition came from old boy Matt Holden who saw the potential of the school's cricket ground.
"It's been a huge operation," headmaster Ross Scrymgeour said. "It started off as a type of village green event, but it has turned into a sort of corporate event.
"So there's a lot of background work gone in to make the event not only exciting, but very well catered for."
The $5 entry free would be donated to St John, Mr Scrymgeour said.
"We will make money for the school, there's also a good amount being given to St John. They're a community organisation that has supported our sports teams ... It's just a way of giving back really."
