a small urn containing some ashes, believed to have been left by a group of Australian men seen boarding a Qantas flight to Sydney. Oh well, we'll take god care of them here in England until they can make arrangements to get them back

Oh I'm so looking forward to being in Oz in a couple of months time

Now if the **** vermin had lost today it would have been a perfect one but I spose you can't have it all

Well done to Strauss and co, I really thought we''d blown it completely after the Headingly test so this was rather a pleasant surprise

I agree with that it was a shit series and not a patch on 2005 but you can only beat whats in front of you and we did it, bit of an anti climax feeling really though anyone else feel the same?

Strange but it doesn't feel like a huge win for England TBH but in all fairness it actually is...

I honestly haven't seen a weaker Aussie team in about 20 years...

That's the most widely held opinion I think.

The Aussies were nothing like their normal selves. They miss Warne and Mc Grath more than they could have ever imagined.

Having said that, there were some sterling performances out there by the English players. Pietersen and Trott were particularly good

All in all a good result, well chuffed.
