South Africa v Australia, 2008-09

Wisden's review of South Africa v Australia, 2nd Test, 2008-09

The dead rubber that transformed a team

A dead rubber it may have been, but the victory in Sydney provided Australia's rookies with invaluable self-affirmation of their abilities at international level

Proud of how we bounced back - Ponting

Ricky Ponting has captained Australia to an Ashes clean sweep and two World Cup triumphs but never has he been prouder of his players than after they wrapped up their series victory in South Africa

The 'Ponting Age' has truly begun
