Sydney Cricket Ground: Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) curator Adam Lewis said he is satisfied with the colour of the pitch ahead of the fifth Ashes Test starting on January 4. It comes on the back of scrutiny that followed after the fourth Ashes game ended in just two days.

The SCG wicket has come under intense focus after the International Cricket Council (ICC) handed the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) an unsatisfactory rating following England's four-wicket victory coming inside two days.

“I don't scroll, I don't have social media, so I try and keep all that negative energy away from me. We just put our own pressure on ourselves. We're trying to produce the best pitch we can with the climate that we're given.
