    Australia will be thrilled with the win, even if it was a consolation, but they retain their number one test ranking. Peter Siddle named man of the match for his 8 wicket haul and Graeme Smith man of the series for 326 series runs. Thanks for tuning in!

    So Australia win a thrilling test match by 103 runs with 10 balls to spare! Steyn and Ntini battled for over an hour and Smith bravely fought to salvage a draw, falling agonisingly short.
