Eyes on the sky as usual in Sydney

Considering the history of rain ruining SCG Tests of late, there were no doubt some nerves when fans arrived to see covers on a damp Sydney surface.
There are clouds around, but the forecast isn’t actually too bad for today and should only get better over the next couple of days.

We’re not expecting any massive rain delays.
Hello and welcome to the beginning of the end

It’s almost time for the start of the fifth and final Test of this dramatic series between Australia and India.
Myself and Mick Doyle will be here to cover every moment of what will hopefully be a dramatic finale to a brilliant series.
Stick around, because there’s plenty to get through even before a ball is bowled.
