Forget that stuff.
Mark Waugh's 116 vs SA at Port Elizabeth in 1997 was one of the greatest test innings I've ever seen. He was a genius in difficult conditions, when the chips were down and appeared to be playing a different sport he was that good. He may not have got the best out of himself, but he was a team player who didn't need to be the star and played his role superbly.

some of the shots he plays on that pitch are just astounding. The cuts, flicks off the pads and the square drives - just superb stuff!
(also, how good having Cometti in the test commentary)
Love it. Hookesy too.
Junior certainly played not only match winning innings but series winnings innings too. Overseas too!!!
His was way more than the sum of his parts.
Find any more feel free to share. Loved watching that one as much as others I posted.
