    Funny - every Aussie I've ever spoken to has said that cricket is everything and the job of aussie cricket captain is the 2nd most important job in the country.

    Of course, this was when they were winning.

        Chant of the series so far from the Barmy Army as Aussie supporters were deserting in droves on Monday afternoon...

                  And that, ladies and gentlemen, is that!

                  An innings and 157 runs. That is what you call a rout - biggest win against oz since 1956!!!

                  Not sure where Ponting goes from here. Probably into retirement?

                      I'd imagine that won't be a difficulty, judging by some of the Test crowds the locals are failing to attend in droves.

                      Fairly convincing victory for England in this Test.
