What a turnaround !!
After Australia conceded consecutive series defeats to India and South Africa, the latter at home, everyone was certain that decade-long Australian dominance in the world of Test cricket was all but over. In absence of the Warne-Mcgrath-Gilchrist-Hayden quartet, an Australian away victory seemed improbable.
But the machine that Australian cricket is, has seemingly churned out capable replacements. A 20-year old and a yet-to-be feared pacer conspired to bring South Africa on their knees only weeks after they were on seventh heaven. Johnson of the "Dravid-is-my-bunny" yore is back in full throttle. Twice in 3 tests, he has crushed Graeme Smith's hand and arguably SA's will.
The way they have outplayed SA in last 2 tests, Australia seem to be not ready yet to give up their numero uno status.
