I was actually convinced at stumps on day 4 that Aus were going to win, but Eng managed to pull through in the end. Also glad this series is done, having an emotional connection to one of the teams playing in a Test series is fun, but gets quite stressful.

However, I’m with Ponting that the ball change was poor and should be investigated. Shame one bad decision made such an impact on the game.

Agreed. I'm not going to make a big deal about it because that's cricket and both sides were lucky at certain points in the series, but it's definitely a process that could be improved.
