JOHNSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW!!!!

Amazing.

Smith didn't deserve that.

Thank Christ for Mitchell Johnson.

you little ripper!!!!!!!!!

Quality delivery would of knocked over a healthy Smith possibly.

Hauritz is just terrible, Ricky had no imagination and Hayden is done and dusted.

Great series even though we got done.

Bring on the 20-20's and ODI

QFT. Haven't enjoyed a series as much since the 2005 Ashes. Every game was brilliant, edge of your seat stuff.

First crack at my team of the series:

Smith
Katich
Ponting
de Villiers
Duminy
Clarke
Haddin
Johnston
Steyne
Siddle
Ntini

Ponting and Amla was a bit of a toss-up for me... that was a bit of a toss-up, Amla more consistent but Ponting made the big runs. Haddin's batting was a lot better than Boucher's, although I think the Protea kept slightly better.

EDIT: Switched Harris for Siddle. No spinners in my team, but really nobody earned it.

Mine would have to be.

You're right, Siddle deserved it more than Harris, who was a nonentity. I rethought it, but didn't get to the post in time.

Siddle was only slightly more interesting then watching Hauritz and paint dry/grass grow reallly.

Krezja would of been in there for sure if the selctors had some balls after the first test and stuck with an attacking option insted of a runs container. If my memory served me correctly I am sure we needed to attack and win not defend and draw.

I reckon the BigCricket community could do a better job of being Chairman of Selectors then the muppet who is there now.

Wow what a finish.

Smith, such a big heart.

Great series.
