Australian opener Chris Rogers, who would play his second home Test on Boxing Day at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), has claimed that it is something one dreams of and cannot take away.
Rogers produced a pair of 55s in last week's second Test win over India in Brisbane, to break a run drought of four successive Tests without a half-century which had sparked speculation over his place in the side.
Rogers, who hit 61 and 116 against England last summer at the MCG, said that to go out and play in a second Boxing Day Test is something one dreams of and cannot take away, News.com.au reported.
The cricketer also said that it could all end tomorrow, adding that it could but he knows he is going to enjoy it while he can and fortunately if one gets a score in the last game generally one plays the next game.
Rogers is hoping to get a score because he likes playing there. He added that a hundred in a Boxing Day Test, as it was last year, would be as good as it gets.
