I certainly didn't. I thought they'd do pretty well to get up to the England score.
As I said, I had a bad feeling about Australia's chances in this game as soon as I heard about McGrath before the first day. I knew how much that would lift the poms. Also, you must remember we have a poor record at this ground!!!
It's going to take a huge effort from Warne today for Australia to have any chance I think.
