At least this will stop baloney like "Harmison is the World's No.1 Fast Bowler".
He was in 2004.
Don't think many will have called him No.1 in the world since then. When the commentators use it they use it as a marker for him to get back to.
The first comment shows your lack of understanding of how it felt to win an Ashes series after being so far behind the races for those 18 odd years. I also doubt many would've called us the greatest team ever.

I think Hoggard made the delivery look better than it was, a good ball but a decent batsman would've blocked it.

Englands day today but not really holding onto the Ashes with anything less than a few whiskers. Cook and Bell did well today (I see Bell hit two sixes off of Warne!) Cook showing tremendous fighting spirit shame about his dismissal.
With KP and Freddie at the crease we will fight and Fred will be fired up but we will lose the Ashes next year. 2009 series will be intriguing though as you'd expect McGrath, Warne and maybe Langer to retire. Warnes endless ammount of overs seem to be effecting him.
