Australia’s legendary speedster Glenn McGrath had gotten involved in a ferocious verbal incident with former West Indies batsman Ramnaresh Sarwan. The incident rewinds to 2003 in the Caribbean where McGrath wasn’t part of the first two Tests. The occurring had taken place when the hosts were 237 for 4 thanks to the Shivnarine Chanderpaul- Sarwan’s batting display.

The pair had stitched up a partnership of 165 and with 181 runs required to win, the match looked nicely poised between the two top giants. The incident began when Sarwan, while taking a single, ran past McGrath and that’s when McGrath got under Sarwan’s skin by saying, “What does Brian Lara’s c*ck taste like?” In response, Sarwan’s replied saying, “I don’t know. Ask your wife.”

However, Sarwan’s response did make McGrath angry, especially considering that his wife Jane was suffering from cancer illness. Sarwan’s response did provoke McGrath and the legendary speedster gave a shot back with a reply saying, “If you f****** mention my wife again, I’ll f******* rip your f***** throat out.” More importantly, the incident did severely was criticised and had left the legendary speedster feeling awful.
