Mitchell Johnson, who this week won Australian cricket's highest honour, the Allan Border medal for his 37 wickets in the recent Ashes whitewash, tells Nick Hoult his favourite four balls from that series:   
1) Cook, in first innings at Adelaide: "It was pretty special. Whenever you can bowl someone of that quality means a lot especially as he dropped his head after it happened.' 
2) Cook, second innings at Adelaide: "He had dominated us playing pulls and cuts in the last series in Australia. But he played a pull shot and got caught off it and that was a turning point for me because it showed me he was not on his game.' 
3) Broad, second innings at the Waca: "Hitting him on the foot here at the Waca was nice. We'd had a lot of rivalry and it was a good moment.' 
4) Bairstow, first innings MCG: "I set him up. I went short at him. He cut a couple, played a pull that went off the top edge. So I brought one back in to bowl him. It's always good when a plan comes off like that.'   

Of course, that's not all he talks about, you can read the full interview in The Telegraph, Kolkata, here
