Glenn McGrath has been brilliant on TMS this ashes series.

They had Adam Gilchrist in over lunch today, and it was brilliant listening to the pair of them. WICKET!

That's one of the confounding things about that great 90s Aussie side - I hated them, every man of them, they were ruthless and relentless and liked nothing better than beating England. And over the years, as they've stopped playing and, they've done interviews or taken commentary jobs, and they've all outed themselves as really likeable decent chaps. It's just not on.
