Kieswetter and Morgan made excellent contributions, as did Mr.Consistent Paul Collingwood, only the 9th player to pass 1000 runs, 100 wickets and 100 catches in one-day internatiionals. They even covered up the fact of Kevin Pietersen's total lack of form. England's performances in this series and in South Africa as well as the Ashes win last summer all prove that England, in the capable hands of coach Andy Flower, are on the rise again.
