well rightly said rev that was one hell of a match..this entire series must be the best ashes series of the entire century..no doubt about it...woooow what a match,david taking on goliath and as the epic goes david whips the hell out of goliath..this series has to be the 2nd best series to the india v/s pak series in this decade..
well im not totally shocked at englands superb performance,bcoz they have a great bowling attack maybe better than the aussies right now,remember mcgrath,gillespie,kasprowicz and warne are close to retiring..well this new menacing blood that england has found in the form of harmison and simon jones will surely be a treat to watch for many many years to come..and boy o boy do we need to talk about "freddy" flintoff,what a transformation has he brought about to the fortunes of the english cricket team...he single handedly is taking the attack to the aussies be it with the bat or the ball..and wow have u noticed the reverse swing that these england bowlers are getting that to as early as 25th over,surely wasim akram,waqar younis and imran khan wud have been proud if they could do it the way these 4 quickies have been eating into the formidable aussie batting lineup..and the tail has done a tremendous job for both the teams,wonder whats with the top order especially with the aussies..all in all in a football crazy country like england for the past month and a half its been only "fascinating cricket coverage be it on the front page or the last page of any tabloid"..wow the last three tests just got to be the hardest fought and closest encounters in test cricket for a long long time to come...
just like ferrari dominated all these years in formula1 and are losing ground to both renault and mclaren this might be just the "beginning of the decline of the team of the century"!!!!!
