Sids great bowling champ! So happy to see him do so well.

Actually wouldn't mind poms making us bat again, give us 1 to win and then Clarkey and Rogers can open together haha. Unlikely though

[Bill Manspeaker]

good work boys. a positive way to finish such a showerty series

goodbye Clarkey  :'(

have you picked my DP and little writing thing Jukesy? :P :(

[henry]

Rogers man of the series...wow. He had a great series no doubt, best average of the batsmen, but given England won thought it had to be Root or Broad.

Still, not many would have retired after being man of the series. Keep playing Bucky!


Edit: Didn't realise there was one for each team. Root it is hahaha, Broad second.

Nahh, I'm a good bloke so I won't bother with it

You owe me one, though

Was just Aus' man of the series, nominated by Bayliss

I wanna honour the bet though, a bet is a bet! I would've given you one :P

tough to pick man of the series, was obviously between Broad and Root, Broad unlucky. well played Joe

Probably because we got 5 dreadful test matches :(

See ya Clarkey, and thanks! Back to the drawing board we go.

[PowerBug]

Nah it's because of the superb new mod we have here

Gotta say, as this series comes to a close, it's been a pretty shower series. Hasn't been a contest, hasn't been any match changing heroics (Maybe when England went 30/4 at Lords). Trent Bridge Day 1 Session 1 might go down as the best session in history for England, but it's still been pretty dull overall.

Looking forward to see how England back up in December in South Africa.

It ain't dull if you're the winner.

It's been dull for all Neutral/Aussie supporters.  :P
