Brilliant test match and well done to both teams.
Well done to Lyon brilliant effort for with man of the match, top effort considering two players made centuries in each innings.
To me it just seemed fitting that we won this one.

Glad Lyon did well, as I reckon the Aussie spinning expectations have a very high bar.

And a great stumping to finish it off too. Those leg side stumpings can be a real bugger because you lose sight of the ball. All of a sudden it just appears from between the batsman's body and his bat. You have no idea about the bounce or pitch of the ball and you get no reaction time.

Haddin made it look easy.

Boy, I love test cricket.

I had just about given up hope early in the afternoon, but a fantastic last 2 hours of cricket. Hats off to the whole side, who all played an important role is a memorable victory.

One of the best test wins I have seen.

I headed over to Adelaide for some of the test. Adelaide oval is absolutely magnificent and so well run - was my first time at the ground, and I'd always wanted to go to a test there. I will be back there for sure - and if possible, will make it an annual event.

Test cricket as it should be, with both teams trying to win the match. Wonderful spectacle.

I know a lot of people are tsk tsk-ing it, but I loved the banter between Warner/Watson and the Indians after the no-ball incident. I remember walking past one of my bosses one afternoon on my way out and being a little abrupt with him after having a particularly bad day that was totally out of my control. I went to apologise to him the next day and he simply said "No need, son. I love to see my people passionate about what they do". Both teams were really in the game and there was some fire in the belly after a tumultuous couple of weeks for cricket. Loved every second of it.
