McGrath looking for last hurrah

Perennial Australian persecutor Glenn McGrath wants to make Sunday's World Cup contest at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium his last against England.

The 37-year-old paceman has tormented England's batsmen for the past dozen years and still gets a buzz out of beating the old enemy - and celebrating a 19th victory in his 33rd one-day appearance would all but end England's bid to progress from the Super Eight stage.

"It would be perfect wouldn't it?" said McGrath. "But it's not going to be easy. I still look forward to it: being an Australian cricketer it is about playing England and hopefully beating England."

He added: "I grew up in the bush watching Ashes series and always wanted to play against England for Australia.

"There is a good chance this is the last time I will come up against them, so I am looking forward to it."
