Great result, but I think that things need to be put into context. Australia are a pretty poor team now, they are missing a lot of decent players. But the loss of Warne is the main thing. A top quality leg spinner like him could take wickets on any surface, where as a top notch off-spinner like Swan needs the correct wicket to destroy a team, which did not seem to be present in Australia. There are many other weak points but I think Warne carried the team a lot in the past. If England had defeated India in that manner it would be a different matter, but I reckon that they are the best team in world. Still the England team is coming on, and it is mainly down to top class bowlers. The batting is improving, but I still have a feeling that it still is not top notch and could collapse with decent bowling, like Mitchell Johnston did to them when he bowled really well for once in the match that Australia won. It's a good thing that Paul Collinwood has retired, he is a top notch fielder but is not good enough with the bat to be batting at the position in the batting order that he was.
