There isn't much to write about for a day needing only 1 hour. Each of the bowlers took a wicket a piece today, to once again demonstrate the definition of team effort. India were all out for 201.
For Harris and Lyon it gave them their best hauls of the series with 3 and 4 wickets respectively for this innings. Lyon was the man to officially give Australia the cleansweep when he got Yadav out edging to the much maligned Brad Haddin.

Siddle and Hilfenhaus took the other 2 wickets to finish the series with 23 and 27 wickets respectively, a great effort from both men.
Man of the match went to Peter Siddle. Pedro did an amzing effort in the first innings to take a 5-fer to restrict India to under 300 on a flat Adelaide wicket. Ponting was a touch unlucky to miss out on the award as he contributed a double century and another fifty in the second innings. Perhaps this was also to show the appreciation to the work Siddle has done throughout the series.
Man of the series went to the leading run scoring - Michael Clarke. There was little doubt Clarke would get this award and despite great efforts by Hilfenhaus and Ponting, a 300 and 200 in a series to go with a series whitewash as captain was always going to make him a shoe in for the award.
And that ends the test series part of this tour, over to the the T20Is and ODIs along with the announcement of the ODI squad tomorrow.
