Australia's lethal fast bowler on the highs and lows - on and off the field - behind his team's magnificent win in the 2003 Cricket World Cup.
One of the world's most devastating fast bowlers, Glenn McGrath is the spearhead of the Australian attack. Facing his relentless line and length, few batsmen are equal to his potent mix of speed, control and hostility. Spirited and fiery on the field but mild-mannered and quietly spoken off it, McGrath is one of Australia's most outstanding cricket success stories and is poised to be one of its greatest ever international wicket-takers.
A vital part of the triumphant Australian team that swept all opposition aside in their stunning World Cup victory in March 2003, McGrath now shares the secrets of the team's success - and what they got up to on tour in Africa. The drug scandal that led to Shane Warne's 12-month ban from cricket, the precarious political situation in Zimbabwe, and the drama and humour surrounding Australia's magnificent winning run - and their off-field antics - are captured in Glenn McGrath's engaging and entertaining tour diary.
