The 'Pigeon' rules the roost - even at the very end

The retirement of McGrath marks the end of an era in Australian quick bowling; that he wound up as the player of the series in the 2007 World Cup bears testament to the commitment he showed, enabling him to go out on top.

Never express, often metronomic, always thinking (and shaking his head), I've seen him convince far too many Sri Lankan batsman to nick one to the keeper or slips; as much as Australia will miss McGrath, other teams will breathe a sigh of relief.
