The previous records were 46 by Rod Marsh, and 44 by Doug Walters. Both apparently contested the validity of Boon's record as he drank beer while grounded in Singapore. However, Boon managed to leave the plane without assistance, Marsh and Walters had to be carried.

The 52 was in addition to the 3 beers he had at Sydney airport. Furthermore, Boon managed 3 pints at a sponsor's cocktail party. Subsequently, he slept for 36 hours and missed two training sessions.

It was quite amazing really. Seeing McGrath actually being able to raise his bat is something to cheerish. His celebration wasn't as great as Dizzy's horse riding but he as you now see he has a 61 bat and a bat sponsor. :D
 
Oh I forgot, Glenn McGrath earned a 10k bonus for his efforts. Sommers have sponsored him since 2002.
 
Watching Brian Lara reclaim the highest ever test score record was something special.
 
Dravids and laxmans 300 odd partnership vs aus in 2001, wher the played thier skins off to save the Indians, some amazing batting, and what a game.
 
Steve Waugh's final test innings. I was at the ground, it was fantastic. But heartbreaking when he holed out to Tendulker :(
 
steve waugh's 100 in sydney against england was extraordinary. i think every australian was watching or wanted to watch. they made sure it was on tv, even though it went after the point at which cricket was supposed to finish. gilchrist came in and almost took all the glory away from him for a moment. so very exciting and to top it off, he scores his century on the last ball of the day.
