	India - Sports - Glenn “The Destroyer” Takes 300th Scalp (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		McGrath delivers the ball from close to the stumps with a high action; he has the unrelenting, obstinate ability to choose the line and length to bowl to a batsman, and then drill on it the whole day, the whole Test and the whole series.
		SYDNEY - Glenn McGrath is a remarkably gracious character on the cricket field -as long as batsmen meekly hand him their wicket; thus, in the recent weeks, despite his avowed abhorrence of Brian Lara - and batsmen in general - McGrath has been at his best behaviour.
		Appropriately, McGrath was all poise and charm after his latest carnage; he had toughened his vice-like grip over Lara’s psyche, this being his 13th dismissal of the now-great, now-pedestrian Lara, who has been allowed only four runs off 14 balls in the last three Test innings by the Australian.

		Mal McGrath, Glenn's uncle, is the closest member of the family left in Narromine and still farms the property adjoining Lagoona.
		Glenn listened - "he always had a very level head on his shoulders" - and took a job as a teller in the State bank in Narromine, preparing to aim for the pinnacle of the Australian baggy green cap.
		McGrath's English equivalent would have bowled far too many overs in his teens, then joined a county staff on a comfortable salary, his spine damaged, his appetite blunted, used to being rewarded for potential not performance.

		The Glenn McGrath incidents in this series, not to forget the Ponting episode, are a telling proof of the glaring lack of justice by the so-called neutral officials.
