It gets better: McGrath's got a real batsman out as well :-)
Code:
11.6 McGrath to Kallis, OUT: and McGrath strikes back with a beauty!
        fuller in length and shaping in, Kallis plays down the wrong line
        and the ball hits the back-pad right in front of the stumps - loud
        appeal and up goes the finger

       ICC World XI 45/2, Partnership of 27
       JH Kallis  lbw b McGrath  8 (23b 1x4 0x6)
Despite the boundary off the preceding ball McGrath's bowling figures are stunning:
Code:
Bowlers:		O	M	R	W	Econ				
GD McGrath (RFM)	6.0	1	13	2	2.17		(0nb, 1w)	Latrobe Street
