Glenn McGrath
563 Test wickets at 21.64, the record for a fast bowler
Overview
McGrath bowled an unerring line and length on or just outside off stump, planning dismissals ball by ball. He took 8 for 24 against Pakistan in Perth in 2004 and retired after the 5-0 Ashes whitewash of 2007. His 563 wickets remain the most by any fast bowler in Test history.
