Glenn McGrath's performances in recent times have been frightening to say the least. After a 5-wkt haul to finish off Pakistan in the VB Series Finals, he has come up with astonishing figures of 4/16 of 9 overs against NZ in a match in which the average runrate was about 3 times his economy rate. Added to his metronomic accuracy, is his slightly increased pace which makes him a truly daunting proposition. And to think that we all thought he would never return to his best after his injury in 2003. Great comeback Pigeon - Sachin take a lesson - don't try to rush you comeback for God's sake.
And on a happy sidenote, an extremely exciting ODI - maybe there might be a renaissance of some sorts in ODI cricket waiting to happen. Again as I have theorized many times the best matches are the ones where teams score 230s and 240s not 320s and 330s.
