Look back in wonder

BEST IMPROMPTU MOMENT I: Ponting8217;s kiss blown to his wife Rianaa after reaching his double century at Adelaide. The most original celebration but one Ponting later came to regret when his team lost the match. Hence his subdued celebrations after the double ton at Melbourne

BEST IMPROMPTU MOMENT II: Ajit Agarkar didn8217;t add to reputation with the bat but he showed at Brisbane he can take a joke on himself. After five consecutive ducks, the original Bombay Duck raised his bat to acknowledge the good-natured ribbing from the crowd when he scored his first run of the series, and his first against Australia in seven innings

BEST CATCH: Damien Martyn c Dravid b Tendulkar, Adelaide. A sharpish leg-break guided to slip. Dravid, despite 13 hours of stupendous batting, was alert enough to pull off the catch
