Match State: Day 1 start scheduled for 11.00 AEDT (00.00 GMT)
Welcome to the first day's play of this fifth and final Ashes Test
from the Sydney Cricket Ground
Australia hold a 4-0 lead in this series, and are looking to become
only the second side to complete five wins in a five Test Ashes
series
Steve Waugh will be playing his 156th Test, equalling Allan
Border's record for most matches, and much of the build up has
focussed on whether or not this will be his last Test
The home side have made one forced change, Andy Bichel gets another
chance coming in for the injured McGrath
And two changes for England, Alec Stewart resumes his wicket-
keeping role after Foster kept in Melbourme, and injured all-
rounder Craig White has been replaced by a specialist fast bowler
in Matthew Hoggard
The umpires and players are now out on the field, the biggest
applause coming unsurprisingly for the Australian fielders

And that completes the day's play, England finishing with the upper
hand
The highlight of the day being Butcher's marvellous century, and
the fine supporting innings played by his captain Nasser Hussain
Gillespie and Lee were the best of the bowlers, Lee looking
especially deadly with each of the new balls - taking one wicket
with each - but perhaps slackened off a little at other times
Whilst Gillespie was his usual consistent self, keeping it tight
and applying pressure to the batsmen on what was not the most
frendliest of wickets for the bowlers
Play resumes at 11.00am local time tomorrow
Match State: Stumps - Day 1
Welcome to the second day's play of this fifth and final Ashes Test
from the Sydney Cricket Ground
England will resume their innings this morning in a healthy
position
The first session will be a crucial one in terms of how the match
takes shape
More resolute batting from England could see them in a position
from which they are unlikley to lose
But anything less could see them end up with another sizeable first
innings deficit
Applause follows the players' entrance out onto the ground
