It ain't over till the fat boy spins

How close did Shane Warne get to retaining the Ashes with his bowling? And how badly did he let England off the hook when he dropped Kevin Pietersen on 15?

What an exhausting, nail-biting finish to a classic series. I guess I am not the only New Zealander to have spent half the night propping open aching eyes in front of the telly. And to have spent the other half of the night lying in bed unable to sleep.

It will take a few days for the weight of this victory to sink in, but if you want a clue about how excited the English are, here is a good place to start.
