Mcgrath took 7wickets for 76 runs. By far he is the best bowler in the world.

In case u lot haven't already realised.... England beat Austrailia by 6 wickets (now dat is a shock).

Mark Butcher scored an outstanding 173 not out.
A career best for this young man.

Again, a Nasser Hussain and Butcher partnership of some 170 runs secured the game with 20.3 overs remaining.
