putrevus Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 He was the meanest SOB on the field but I think as a team mate people loved him. The best thing about him was he was a nightmare to all the top order batsmen of his era.There is no single batsmen who dominated him. Link to comment

Sachin to his credit hit a six and yelled FO to Mcgrath in CT 2000 Tendulkar destroyed mcgrath in 96 wc,2000 CT knocked aus out with his initial blitz vs mcgrath.99 test series was even with mcgrath getting 2 bad decisions in his favour,tendulkar crucially also got the better of mcgrath in the 2001 chennai decider test where he scored a key hundred and proceeded to blast him throughout the following series.I would say they were even,but mcgrath was a massive threat in big matches.

Tendulkar1996 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 One of the great battles of the 99 tour soured by a bad decision with ball going high.Darrell harper was horrible that series.Like bucknor in 2008. Link to comment

I loathed him for being damn so brilliant. He challenged the best and got hold of them by their tails. Legend. Gollum 1 Link to comment
maniac Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Used to behave like a thug on field but comes across as a total gentleman off the field in every interview I have seen and obviously doing some great charitable stuff. Link to comment

Nah man, I will stick to 2 howlers. Sachin is just 165 cm tall, he was stuck in the crease, looked plumb. Real McCoy 1 Link to comment
Anoop K Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 (edited) I think you all are missing the hitting McGrath got from Sachin at Vishakhapatnam, 2001 4th ODI. Australia scored 338 and India had to chase it. Apart from Sachin no one even tried to chase it. Tendulkar scored 62 of 38 balls. In comparison ganguly made 9 from 36 balls, laxman 11 of 25 balls and Dravid only 7. McGrath figures were - 8 overs 62 runs economy of 7.75 runs. I guess it's not difficult to guess who destroyed McGrath especially when others were playing test match (Apart from Tendulkar). Edited February 9, 2019 by Anoop K Mistake Link to comment
