Sunday 7 March 1999
Day 4: First Test, Queen's Park Oval, Port-of-Spain Trinidad

Imagine the best celebration you have ever had!

Imagine the jubilation of an outstanding achievement!

Imagine the excitement of being in a team as close as a family!

Imagine playing Test cricket for Australia, the number one Test-playing nation in the world!

And imagine the unbridled joy of beating the mighty West Indies, in a Test Match, in three-and-a-half days.

If you can imagine all those feelings, then that is exactly what it was like in our changeroom at Trinidad today. Absolutely sensational, absolutely electric!

For a Test cricketer there is nothing like the feeling of winning a Test match. Personal glory is great, there is no denying that, but winning a Test match, well that really is the ultimate prize from playing Test cricket. Arm in arm with your team-mates, singing 'Underneath the Southern Cross ...', is the closest thing you can get to absolute team-sport jubilation.

Tomorrow I will give you a full description, with lots of photos, of today's victory and the celebration and jubilation that followed. Click onto the Net tomorrow for a full run-down.

For now it is off to make the most of a job well done...

From Trinidad, absolutely pumped, JL!
