4. Glenn McGrath: Bowlology 101
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJuW21SWhxQ Former Aussie quick Glenn McGrath often seemed to have the ball on a piece of string and got it to do exactly what he wanted more often than not. Even in retirement the man affectionately known as Pigeon was still very much on top of his game. In a televised charity match against the Australian national side, McGrath talked the Channel Nine commentators through his dismissal of the big-hitting David Warner live on air. After a bit of friendly stick from fellow Aussie great Shane Warne, McGrath revealed he wanted to get the ball to move away from the left-handed Warner off the pitch and hopefully induce an edge for a catch behind. It was as easily done as said for the great New South Welshman and the old combination of McGrath and Gilchrist struck again.
