Steve Waugh is All time Great! One of the Greatest test Captain of All time. Australia won 44 Test out of 56 under Waugh.

What a legend! My hero from childhood into adulthood, Steve Waugh was my favourite player as a kid long before he became captain.That day I remember my family jumping for joy as he hit that last ball, pure elation that the champion still had it in him and could silence his critics… namely the selectors. 40,000 people at the SCG wanting it, last ball of the day and he delivers. Greatest moment.

[@RealistVK]

No wonder they were trendsetters of that era. They played with & for each other. Steve Waugh is one of the most inspirational sportsperson worldwide who lead them in such a top manner. Its so nice to see a legend Gilly giving another legend Waugh the respect he deserves.

One of those ‘where were you when…’ moments. I’ll never forget watching that innings from a true champion of the game in every aspect of it. Thanks for the memories Stephen Waugh, one of the best of the best.

Sitting in the lounge room at 105 sunderland drive banksia beach bribie island. Exact same seat I was in when Alfie langer returned from England for Queensland. Won’t forget that.

[@The_Last_Ninja]

@@troystaunton254 Both memorable moments in the history of Aussie sport 🤙🏻

[@cl5ltd]

In my back shed in Adelaide, nervously pacing listening to the ABC with Aggers & Skull describing the dramatic finale. Then dashing inside to see on TV what my ears couldn’t believe. My favourite Captain and a hero despite being much the same age.

[@BilboBiggs]

Absolutely one of those moments, and one that rival almost all others of the same description. Watching it in The Club Hotel in Gladstone will be a forever memory, place was packed and everyone roared then toasted it for many hours after.

[@rocknral]

On the jobsite laying tiles, listening to the radio....

[@kestrel09]

For me, his greatest innings was in the West Indies, 1995 where he scored a double ton. I recall how he was he was mercilessly attacked by their pacemen, namely Curtly Ambrose and was covered in bruises in his was to his stellar score which pretty much won Australia the match. True grit personified. Man of the match and series.

[@rocknral]

Loved the sportsmanship of the poms. They all knew they'd be a part of something special and acknowledged his achievement.

[@mrkipling2201]

I’m going to miss channel 9’s coverage of cricket.

[@guharup]

even in that team, he was a titan. That tells you how good he was

[@barrybr1]

I listened to the last 30mins of the days play on a scratchy car radio while camping in the bush......it was a moment I'll never forget.

[@ngunnawalmick7029]

I was listening on the radio...truly a magic moment in Australian sport.

[@syc9675]

Missed the good old days of Channel Nine’s summer of cricket. Whatever happened to the good old days of Nine’s summer of cricket? Nine did an amazing job at producing the Summer of cricket and we were able to watch all forms of cricket live.

[@boiragirules]

Cricket is now Woke!

[@KuldeepSingh-cm3oe]

Steve Waugh is Legend.

[@1824ajay]

I love Steven Waugh such a fantastic batsman!!His grit and determination can be used in any walk of life!!Legend

[@steveothepainterreeding9126]

My hero and loved the moment. Nerves of steel. If you need a life lesson watch more of that man during his career.

[@chrisfi3d]

I remember they delayed the national news to wait until the innings was over! Delayed it by half an hour

[@pulichandrasekhar8775]

My favourite captain is Steve Waugh.

[@henryosembo6463]

One of the best in the business!!

[@venkatkrishnan8146]

Certainly one of the games greatest player. Brilliant fighter. Good luck to SW

[@markdowse3572]

I was there at the SCG in the Members' Stand that perfect day. 😊 When Steve Waugh hit that final ball for four, I have NEVER heard or felt a roar like it before or since... M 🦘🏏😎

[@AmjadAli-rh8kh]

Wow these days amazing I miss you so much 😢

[@hotrodsonulondon7111]

What a great feeling, thanks Steve.

[@glennmillard3497]

Cometh the man, Cometh the hour. The will, determination, and drive were at the highest level. When Steve came out to bat, everyone knew to watch out because he was in it to the end. Steve is easily a legend of cricket. Thank you for the memories 😁

[@paultorpedo6378]

I watched this whole session on tv when I was 15. We were as loud as the crowd at home. One of the best and cleanest 100's in history

[@user-cf8qy9nt7j]

This man was biggest star of Australian cricket in 90s.he scored runs for Warne and macgrath to win matches.

[@mattc3929]

There may have been better player's but Steve Waugh is a must in my all time 11. Favourite player ever.

[@arunk3874]

Undisputed legend and leader the world has seen - the one and only Steve Waugh!

[@VFAFOOTY]

A day i will never forget one of the greatest !

[@nahidulnirob6460]

Brilliant Man his History bcame this

[@Tidocrazy]

I was in Woolworths in the meat section when I heard the workers at the back start cheering and I was literally a happy and proud moment in Australian cricket

[@Ozvideo1959]

I remember in the lead up to that game, the press were on his back, suggesting that he shouldn't be in the team. If there was ever a hundred under pressure, Steve Waugh's was it.

[@richardpate8014]

A truly memorable moment. It was also possibly the worst case of leaving a guy hanging for a high 5. Poor Gilly never quite got over it 😅

[@matt2877]

Channel nine commentary made it much more memorable great commentary to go with fantastic innings

[@user-do4fm2yg8h]

Great batsman

[@WaqasAhmadWarraich-mf9ch]

Classic ❤

[@RanjitSingh-vz7bb]

Aussies go for gold

[@maxxfx4767]

Gilly... the ultimate team mate... gets burnt with the high five

[@chrisr5786]

How much I miss these days. Batters using their feet and technique to score runs. Instead of planting the front foot and hit through the line
