Former Australia fast bowler, Glenn McGrath will be inducted to the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame during the Test between Australia and Sri Lanka in Sydney on January 4.
McGrath will be the 68th male cricketer to make into the hall of fame. In 2012, Brian Lara was inducted the last before him.
“I am honoured that the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame voting academy, which includes all the current living Hall of Famers, have nominated and voted me to be inducted,” McGrath said. “I am very much looking forward to celebrating the occasion on January 4 at the SCG, which is of course is like a second home to me.”
Glenn McGrath played 124 Tests, with 563 wickets at an average of 21.64. He is the Australia’s second leading wicket-taker, behind Shane Warne, and fourth on the overall list. He was part of Australia’s World Cup-winning teams in 1999, 2003 and 2007.
