Yeah that was a cracking win. Fantastic recovery from 8/122 on the first day. I imagine we'll go in unchanged to the next Test, and the Poms have some work to do.
I thought Cummins was the stand out, have always liked him ever since he dismantled Sarth Ifrica years ago and then had health issues. Of course Smith was just lucky Warner is a couple of bad innings away from being dropped , never liked him and Bancroft needs some sandpaper to keep him in the team If not for DRS the poms would have been out for zip ...... Aleem Dar has been the ref when we've won most of our matches ..... on the pay roll ????
They won't change a winning side, so Warner and Bancroft are safe for now. I think all the bowlers did well, and it was good to see Lyon perform well on the last day. There have been occasions in the past where he was "expected" to bowl us to victory but hasn't been able to. He was fantastic this Test and probably deserved a 10-for. Both umps had a shocker. I'm grateful DRS exists as it meant several howlers got overturned, which is exactly what it's for.

Only an old fart would get that........................................oh hang on........................
Well that didn't take long...Poms capitulate @ 67,lowest total against Aussie at Headingley since 1948.
Yes you should have,surprisingly the booos for the Aussies seemed to dry up...particularly after Warners 4 catches! It was deadset gold to watch.
