Sydney was, in terms of impact on the sport, arguably one of the most important tests of the last two decades. Not in a good way tho, it's fair to say.
As a sporting contest, I'm going with Norman Cowans, AB & Thommo, Miller's rebound & all that: the MCG.

Just keep it simple Morgie, and give it to the one with most votes. I understand why its not ideal when it doesn't have the majority of votes, but in a battle like this which unfortunately isn't getting a massive amount of votes (so far), just do most votes so we can get through the rounds.

Apologies for being late, was busy and it got late by the time I wanted to finish it. Disappointing turnout, but Melbourne wins.
This battle looks fairly bland from the outside, but I may be wrong.... 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v India at Galle, Jul 31-Aug 3, 2008 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo  1st Test: England v Australia at Cardiff, Jul 8-12, 2009 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo  4th Test: South Africa v England at Johannesburg, Jan 13-17, 2005 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo

Biased vote, but Cardiff. Pretty turd Test for 4 days but I don't think I've ever been quite as tense as I was on day five. Couldn't even bring myself to go the toilet between overs in case I missed a ball.

Have to go for Galle. Best live innings I've seen ahead of Laxman's 281 and Clarke's 151.
