Following weeks of speculation about his future as the captain of the seemingly unbeatable Australian Cricket Team, Waugh stepped up to the crease to the deafening applause of a capacity crowd at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

Join Steve Waugh as he provides insightful commentary to one of the most significant innings in cricket history. His incredible performance is captured in this celebration of one of Australia's finest sporting heroes and his one PERFECT DAY.
