'McGrath's best days are gone'

Jeff Thomson believes Glenn McGrath is too old and his effectiveness is in doubt for the 2007 World Cup.

“I thought he was gone when we toured the West Indies last tour, but to his credit he bounced back from that,” Thomson said in the Daily Telegraph. “But I don't know if he can bounce back to his best. I think his best days are gone. He bowls tight but doesn't seem to be taking wickets. What doesn't help him is now Brett Lee is bowling better, and it makes McGrath look worse.”
