Nasser Hussain runs out Strauss (you are allowed to add deliberately to it) as the caption says here and Strauss is deprived of doing a Rowe or Hameed. But, all this after these two put on 108 runs for the third wicket and the Kiwis lost (we hate the Poms and the Kiwis!) - now, don't get started on if England deserved to win. This win is so sweet for the English, but it gives them selection worries for the next Test when Michael Vaughan is expected to be fit. Hussain was expected to give way to Vaughan, but this century has made him the hero along with Strauss, who was the Man of the match, for this Test match and so would the axe fall on the Test match specialist Mark Butcher ?
And for all those Sachin Tendulkar worshippers, your 'god' has a highest score of 44* (in a winning cause) in the 4th innings of a Test. I won't argue that Nasser is better than Sachin.
