The headline is clickbaity but the article is fairly reasonable?
Apart from the one paragraph from where the pull quote comes, I think that’s a pretty fair assessment of the test.
I agree, they bowled out a team for 67 in the first innings. But ‘deserved to win’, what does that even mean?
Either way, he’s a pretty average summariser/pundit. I was disappointed it was him not Mitchell Johnson on TMS on Sunday.
Most annoyingly great shithead Aussie bowler from that era
- McGrath
- Lee
- Warne

Johnson was splitting duties with Channel 5 iirc
I know it’s warne, but just something about McGrath winds me up something proper
On Sunday, I remembered how lovely it is to hear an Aussie say “aw, look”
As in one day TMS, one day C5 or splitting duties during the day? I can’t remember hearing Johnson at all on Sunday.
It is what it is
When McGrath started as a pundit a few years ago he was OK, fairly balanced. But the one who really shocked me was Merv Hughes; turns out he was a great guy all along
His bowling was so consistent it was annoying.
Splitting duties during the day I think. Might be wrong. Think he’s going back home and not on UK broadcasts for the last 2 tests anyway
yeah, Mitch has gone and they’d getting Matt Hayden or someone.
Best fast bowler I’ve ever seen. And I absolutely hated him for it.
If you were Australia you’d be fairly confident of winning one of the last two tests wouldn’t you
Still Curtly Ambrose for me
Would be a brilliant* anti-narrative if England went 2-1 up and then lost the last test
*awful
