Peter Roebuck, writing in the Sydney Morning Herald, picks Brett Lee as the unsung hero of the spicy series.
Ricky Ponting possessed the most lethal bowler in the series. He could throw the ball to Lee with confidence. Lee used the crease resourcefully, his slower ball effectively, his bumper sparingly and his outswingers frequently.
... By the end of the series, India's four senior speedsters were on the physio's table. All of them should be forced to undertake a rigorous rehabilitation program at a facility in a remote desert and run by a bad-tempered 82-year-old with cold hands. Nor could Kumble put complete faith in his own bowling shoulder or an off-spinner whose doosra troubled only the home captain.
