Overall SA were the better team in the test series and deserve to retain the cup.
However, England were undoubtedly the better team in the ODI series.

Indeed. Never argued that SA aren't the best :)

Yeah, I'd have taken a draw, fantastic really. Showed their grit, resilience and determination even when playing against the best side.

I would have taken the draw at the start of the series but after the second test we should have pushed forward and beat SA. Hey ho, pick ourselves up and hopefully a nice and series against Bangladesh but i highly doubt that will happem.

I want the CC season to be back on too :(

Strauss won't be in the Bangladesh series.

Bang goes our hopes then.

He wants a rest before the Ashes.
Cook will be the captain for the Bangladesh tour.

I've always seen Strauss as the backbone of the English cricket team.

He was the reason we won the Ashes in the summer.

No, Collingwood is the whole reason we won the Ashes.

I don't think it's the end of the world.
