Ha. Right. Because I'm really letting it keep me up at night, right? That zoom was the point going over your head.

Worst call, dead set.

I just hope it stretches through to Saturday, so I can pay my respects to the retirees.

I'm really not that sure of Jamie Dalrymple's selection. People describing him as a bowler who is a useful batsmen are wrong. Hes a batter , who bowls off spin. Hes taken 100 odd wickets in 63 first class games at 43 a piece. He will probably play. But I don't expect him to do that much. Hes not a great turner of the ball either.

Can England save this test match? Yes. With Warne McGrath and Langer retiring will they? The way they are playing no.

Heres to hoping that all 3 retiree's go out deserving Winners, and that all three take either a 50, or 5-fer at the least out of the match

Billy Bowden will be loving it, officiating in this Test match.

Remember him hugging Tugga Waugh in his SCG retirement in 2003/2004!

McGrath and Warne should appeal for anything remotely close in this match.

My Incredibly insane £50 bet for Sydney

Shane Warne, or Glenn Mcgrath, will take a hat-trick (One of them, not both of them)
