Match drawn, 2-1 to England in the series, beating the Aussies for the first time in 18 years!

Hell I wasn't even born then.

Opinions on the whole series in total?

We were on fire in the first test. xD. Redemption!

Best series I've ever seen. Shane Warne should have been MoTS in my opinion, but I guess they picked Flintoff because he helped England win, rather than sparing their blushes.

Kevin Pietersen can have my babies...

I am so mad. I demand a rematch! I can't believe the Aussies lost.

Awesome series. I really enjoyed watching it just for the sheer quality of cricket displayed; that along with some intense nail-biting moments made it amazing.

I for one don't enjoy watching one team getting crushed, I prefer to see sport performed by two teams of high quality. Yes, England won, which is bloody brilliant, but if Australia hadn't been a high-class team and put up such a tremendous fight, then watching the cricket wouldn't have been nearly as much fun.

Catch-wise, my favourite was Gerraeant Jones' catch off the thigh of Strauss? was it, i think? At Trent Bridge..... I cant remember to be honest, but it was an awesome catch.

Finally, the sheer cameraderie between the teams, and the good sportsmanship displayed was an absolute joy to watch. Something other sports *cough* football *cough* could learn from.

I'll take Strauss' diving one handed catch any day. That was amazing.

**Nod** · 09-13-2005, 07:51 PM

Hell yeah, his reaction time to make that catch had to be through the roof!
