excluding warne and flintoff, who were australia and englands players of the series ?

[Jamee999]

He won more games than Brett this series

 

[Barney Rubble]

He won more games than Brett this series

He won more games with the bat this series than Brett did with the ball. That says a lot.

Australia : Langer
England : Simon Jones

Brett Lee coz he played his heart out every test and was so unlucky... he should have had more wickets than he did and should have had his fifty twice... and he was a great sportsman thru it all too... exept for his last spell which i think he was gonna kill someone i wonder what made him so angry?

I think it was a little thing that made him a wee bit angry ,it was called an urn and it contained some burnt bails or something like that.gee if you knew he was going to get angry over that we could have burnt him some ,if he had of asked hahahaha

Actually it says nothing at all. Lee averaged 3 times what he did with the bat, you know.

That probably says a lot about Lee's series too - he's become a specialist bat.....

 

[sledger]

he and warne were probably their most consistant batsmen actually

Nah. Gilchrist was the most consistent.

For England, it's a three-way fight between Tresco, KP and the Dragon. I think Dragon shades it, if only because he was the one out of the seamers who many thought could struggle - he was even dropped in SA, seems unthinkable now.

seemed unthinkable back then too. wins a game for england in the series, and then 2 games later gets dropped. makes the ' duncan always had faith in him' look like tripe.

Ponting? One great innings aside I thought he was disappointing with the bat. Although he only played in 3 tests I think McGrath did more. The others I'd agree with.

ponting was player of the series for england actually.

 

[sledger]

Nah. Gilchrist was the most consistent.

consistant at getting out early one perhaps, not it terms of scroing runs.

Oh and when the little round thing hits those sticks does that mean his got to get off the field

How much of it was Duncan, and how much of it the selectors in general though?

i would think duncan fletcher has a fair amount of influence over the selections in the side.

 

[greg]

Your point is a bit ambiguous, but fwiw the selectors in general don't pick the sides on tour - Fletcher and Vaughan do.
