It certainly will, the whole ground is going to jumping and cheering. Well done to us, we have back that little urn (even though I think it is infact about to leave/has just left our shores to head back to England.)

Also FTB, which days are you going to the test and where are you sitting out of interest?

I'm not going


I have to work some because I don't get paid for doing my industry experience (cos it's in a Hospital I assume), so I need to get some cash up, so apart from that it will be just TV for me... (i'll be cheering along though from home don't worry!)

[superman321]

Ahhh, sorry to hear that mate, I just assumed from previous posts you were going.

[Fadingtoblack]

Yeah I'm totally there in spirit man!

Shane Warne and Glen McGrath will announce their retirement tomorrow, effective January 6. Sad day. Gilchrist might go as soon as the WC. Can't see Langer holding out much longer either. Hayden? Massive changing of the gaurd coming up. The only challenge worse was Border's 80s team against the Windies of the time. Lucky for Ponting he's got no-one to fill that void.

Well we've got Macgill for a spinner, Clarke's already the new McGrath, so we really just need a new wicket keeper.

It's gonna be a shock to the system but I think we can stay on top

45 min till warne announces retirment, Mcgrath will do it next week sometime.

We'll still be on top, we've got so much depth it's rediculous.

[Danallica]

Looks like McGrath is playing on.

[metallifreak27]

playing on only for the world cup tho thats what i heard anyway

[Danallica]

Yeh I think that's right; I believe he intended on retiring after the Ashes as well but wants to win 3 WC in a row.
