@mrSTRAIGHTEDGE1000 I don't think he was a great bowler. He was very good for England, but he doesn't even make my Top 10 English pace bowlers. I do rate him, and he was very good, but in my opinion there is only a select number of players that cross the line from very good to great; the Bradmans, Warnes, Sobers and Marshall etc. Hoggard is not an all time great, and I don't mean to undervalue or underrate him, but it is my opinion.

@mrSTRAIGHTEDGE1000 I don't think I said Hoggard was a bad bowler, unless I'm mistaken... He was very good, but in my opinion doesn't cross the line into greatness.

@iamthegreatest27, yeah, but it was swinging in to his pads, so the shot was on, Warney just wasn't good enough.  Perhaps a tad too short for that though, it was a good length.

1. Hayden should have left it. 2. Martyn should have either left it or used less bottom hand. 3. Good length, late outswing, Ponting had no chance, although could maybe have left. 4. Hussey WTF? 5. Great inswinger, Warney had no chance. 6. Poor shot, good catch. 7. Nice length and swing. Poor shot, but he is a tail-ender, so what would you expect? At least we went on to win the Test and series 5-0.

@wisden550 Warney played across the line though...great nut.
