That was the best test match of the summer tbh, very enjoyable contest. SCG pitch was surpisingly good for cricket, having generally been rubbish this season. Herath bowled really well today, shame the Lankans gave him no runs to work with much of the series.

Loved Hussey talking up the SCG as well. great cricket ground

I'll miss you Huss.

Phil Hughes pretty much got out the moment it was up to him to get the hundred in the first innings. Got out again when it was up to him to make sure Australia won comfortably in the 2nd innings.
So if he got say 57 instead of 87 you wouldn't be complaining?
I love Morne Morkel, but I don't go around pretending that wickets he took were more valuable than other people's. I wouldn't talk about him being the match's leading wicket taker, I would talk about 5 wicket hauls, great bowling and important breakthroughs ...

Also, Jayaradene was the test's leading runscorer, not that that fact matters as anything more than a bit of trivia
1. I'm not saying Hughes is my man of the match.
2. I obviously meant out of our team seeing as I was replying to a post about passengers in our team. Runs the Sri Lankans scored is irrelevant.

I'm not saying Hughes was Bradmanesque in this test. But he scored the most runs out of our batsmen so I had every right to dispute someone calling him a passenger.
