how to play the datafile generated by cdrdao

the command cdrdao --device /dev/cdrom --datafile fichier fichier.toc produce a datafile and a toc from an audio cd that can be used to burn a copy of the cd (again with cdrdao, no problem here). I would like to know if it is possible to play the datafile without burning it. Does any one what format it is? There must exists mplayer options to play it but I am lost.

I have just found the solution. In case someone is interested, sox can play it:

play -t cdda <datafile>
