Don't forget Adelaide 2006

England take the hard knocks

Despite a traumatic third day in the field, England showed that they've got what it takes to fight back, if not right now, then without question as the series wears on

Haddin's best

If Brad Haddin had settled with a half-century in this innings his contribution still would have glowed. By stretching it so far he delivered the greatest performance of his life

Anderson leads attack into pivotal third day

It is a mark of both the respect England have been given by their opponents and the tenacity they've shown in the first two days that they are so close to parity despite spending so long chasing the game

In the shadow of the Don

The lonely colossus

An all-round superstar

At his peak, Ian Botham's match-winning skills as an allrounder were unparalleled, and he could have made it to the England team as either a specialist batsman or bowler

03-Oct-2010•S Rajesh

Nothing by half

Botham had bucketloads of self-belief to go with his tremendous talent. Even when age slowed him down he could will wickets into falling with the force of his personality
