Yes, definitely. BUT; Seamer, I always predicted that the series will be 3-2 in Australia's favour with England to win the second and fifth tests. However, the McGrath injury swung it totally in England's favour, although I honestly don't think he'd have made a world of difference in hindsight.

Big win. If England had've lost it would've meant a 4-0 or 5-0 series. For them, it's better to win by 2 runs than 62 runs. It just shows that Australia aren't untouchable; this is the first time England have beaten them in a live rubber in quite some time.
