Day 5 Review: Cricket at it's best

I was really pleased to see the game end in a draw, it is the essence of cricket that sometimes [even after 5 days as my wife complains] you just cant separate two sides, they are genuinely as good eachother. Albeit that England were actually slightly better, and any Australian who saw fit to celebrate the draw yesterday will be waking up feeling a little bit silly after he realises that his team were in fact a shadow of their former selves and their dominance over England is now over.

I agree with Luke that Autralia have to strengthen somewhere and it is probably in both batting and bowling, Symonds being the obvious choice for me instead of Clarke [back] or Katich [inept].
