If I'd picked Tresco instead of Hayden and Simon Jones instead of McGrath I'd be winning now, but I don't care really because 5th is good for my first fantasy test series. I owe thanks to the following:

Strauss (1 ton).
Langer (relatively consistent and some big-ish scores).
Vaughan (my best batting pick in terms of a gamble - I knew he had a ton and some more runs in him)
Pietersen
Flintoff as captain
Warne (Especially as a bonus point bowler).
Brett Lee (fairly good series).

So here's to a great final test, with all of my players performing really well in a high scoring draw where 39 wickets are taken by McGrath, Harmison, Fintoff, Warne and Lee....and where Harmison is not out at the end with 50
