From an Englishman, so much admiration for Glenn McGrath as a bowler and person. He really got under our skin with his predictions of what he was going to do to our batsmen, but that's putting his money where his mouth is, and the vast majority of the time, he was right! As with Warnie, every ball was an examination for the batsman. I must admit, I was never so pleased about a sporting injury as when McGrath trod on the ball before the Edgbaston 05 Test. England winning that series was an incredible achievement, but I doubt if it would've been possible had McGrath not missed two Tests, and wasn't fully fit in another. A true all-time great.

[@SSR175]

McGrath proved you need not be extremely fast or move the ball miles to be a genuine wicket taker. His consistency,control over seam and the bit of extra bounce from his 6'6 frame and high arm action did enough for him to get over 500 test wickets and make him an all time great fast bowler.

Great compilation! Half of them aren’t even out

[@Shubham-gq8lo]

Simply put, McGrath is one of the most lethal bowler EVER to lace up a pair of boots. For me, He is the GOAT. Also, IDGAF if some of those LBW decisions would have been overturned if DRS existed then. As it would have been the same case for all the other bowlers too at the given time. People can have other opinions so each to their own. But *Mcgrath will always be my favorite bowler* .

[@yashtiwari117]

So many LBW decisions going his way. Clearly most of these weren't hitting the stumps.

[@blizzard6053]

That’s what I noticed too. Absolutely appalling decisions for KP and Mckensie

[@egumoorthy]

McGrath is one of the great fast bowlers ever produced by Australia.But most of the LBW decision in this video suggests that he was lucky to get those wickets. Because for most of the wickets the Ball tracking shows the Impact "Out side the off stump" as per current DRS system

[@rileysmith9929]

It doesnt matter if the impact is outside off if no shot is offered. Although i do agree that many of these looked not out to me.

[@user-nk2wl7es5z]

Vicky Gautam none of them have the same claim as McGrath does to being in an All time test 11. Most of the selections made by cricketers are based on selective memory, an incomplete understanding of the sport, leniency of flash over proven statistical record, historical myopia and cognitive errors.

[@user-nk2wl7es5z]

In reality none of McGrath lilee wasim or Marshall should make an all time world 11. The world 11 should ideally have a lower order of Keith miller, Imran Khan, Richard Hadlee and depending on your expectations from your number 11, Aubrey Faulkner or Sydney Barnes.
