McGrath 100% fit now

Thursday, April 15 2004

Aussie paceman Glenn McGrath, according to reports, is now 100% fit from his ankle injury, and available for international selection of the country's tour of Zimbabwe next month.

The chairman of selections, Trevor Hohns, told The Daily Telegraph, "Glenn is 100 percent fit and raring to go. He has sorted out a few problems with his bowling that he probably found when he came back."

McGrath underwent two operations on his left ankle during his latest eight-month break and tried in vain to make it back in time for Australia's recent tour of Sri Lanka. Despite being cleared to return, he wasn't considered because of lack of match practice.

But since then, McGrath has played several matches in the Sydney club competition, to return to contention for the international side.

Australia's squad for the tour will be announced next week.
