Four matches into the 2005 Ashes series, and it is becoming increasingly clear that the contest is between the entire English side, that has its cup brimming with so much confidence that it’s a wonder it doesn’t spill over, and a couple of Australian players, i.e. Brett Lee and Shane Warne. The grit and the fight shown by these two Australians is exemplary! Lee’s exultation after clean bowling Flintoff with a beauty on the fourth day of the fourth Test is an excellent example of the passion displayed by him (and Warne) during this series.

The rest of the Aussie team seems to be down under, figuratively speaking of course!

With over 10 days to go for the final Test, there is enough time for McGrath & co. to recover back to full fitness and make this an already memorable Ashes tour, a very special one!
