    Glen McGrath, always the gentleman of Australian cricket. I remember early in his career he was a genuine number 11 with the bat, but he improved as his test career progressed. He put a high price on his wicket and never just threw it away. It was great seeing these wonderful video clips again. I remember one of his ambitions was to hit the willing runs in a test. From a bowler who contributed many test wickets in his career, undoubtedly being his contribution towards winning, it is amazing having an ambition like that.

One of the most memorable moments watching that game. So glad I was able to see it back when it happened to truly appreciate it.

      Honestly Gillespie and McGrath were very ordinary batters, our bowlers have only been good bats for the last 10 years or so. We currently have by far the best tail end in the world but it wasnt a strength of this golden team besides Warne who was pretty handy.
