- With the initials 'SCG', it was fitting that Stuart MacGill dominated in Sydney.
On his 49th birthday, enjoy his 12-wicket haul against England from 1999, which helped Australia retain the Ashes 3-1. - กีฬา
Unpopular opinion: Mcgill turned it more than anyone in his prime.
Not Murali
You'd be surprised by how unpopular it i, but Yeah Warner was/is (for me) a top 5 bowler ever.
@@sugs1191 Murali didn't spin it as much as Warne or macgill. Granted that they're different types of spinners, Murali never turned it as much and as often as the other two. The main reason Murali was so successful was his doosra, accuracy and action. Sure he spun the ball a long way now and then, but never as consistently as Warne or macgill did.
@@hadi878 I disagree with that. I genuinely think he was a bigger turner and he could turn it on any surface. Not saying he was a better bowler.
@@sugs1191 bro have you seen how macgills turning it in this video? I've never seen such sharp deflection off the surface from Murali even once in my life.
Like him soooooo very much. He is one of my favourite spinner.
His action bit like medium pacer, once he lands the ball, there is no stopping. The ball turns so sharply .Truly a magnificient bowler,
I forget just how good a keeper Healy was. Those catches just looked so casual. Great footwork and glovework
healy is probably the best keeper australia has had apart from gilchrist
@@benburch best wk. Gilly was a better wkb
This guy had same potential as Shane Warne had. He was just born in wrong time. Because Warne is absolutely legend. Big and tight hug to Stuart.
If play in with other country he became more face and achieve lot of is dreams
@@rajkumarhazare8264 He Would Have Been Worshipped had he played for india
he was lucky
@@aadityanikam8830 no he would have been removed just after 1stmatch due to politics
@@llecropus3465 true lol
Born during Warne's revolution!!
Underrated bowler.
As a 90s kid i used to copy his action!
1. 3m Run up
2.Keep the ball hidden
3.Bowl a perfect Legspin or Googly!!
Man this guy could rip it. If he played in any other era he'd have 300 plus wickets.
I guess more than 400 even! in the meantime, England had Giles 🤦🏽♂️
Probably 600.
@@gilbernrangel9851 this ain't an auction 😄 but I like your spirit!
That's an understatement. Warnie had 700, Kumble who wasn't a much of a leggie got 600. You know where Stuey should be standing.
@@adityadeshpande8823 I appreciate it.
Born in wrong time.
Exactly mannnn!
Macgill has to be biggest turner of the ball to walk on this planet. The amount of turn he used to get at times was more than warne as well. He didn't have control of warne though but aus would have loved to have him right now.
Have you seen the amount of spin of warne?
@@ramkishoremech MacGill spun it way more than Warnie
@@c3vzn I can spin the ball more than Warne but I can't knock a grape off a stick like he could. Accuracy is king.
@@Passing_Gas lol.why don't you play for your country then?
@@yoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo8670 Probably because they wouldn't select someone who can spin the ball but it lands 4m away from the crease.
3:58 What a turn!!! ❤❤
Legendary leg-spin ❤
Would have been a legend if he had played any other era. It’s incredible Australia had not one, but two extraordinary leggies...
and now we can’t produce one for the life of us.
He is arguably Australian Test cricket's second best spinner (Warne number 1). Lyon took his 400th wicket today but I still rate MacGill ahead of Lyon
@@dubbomarcus we do, and he will be just as unlucky.
Don't forget hogg!
Hogg was there too
I miss the channel 9 intelligent commentary. Especially by the cricket greats. Those days are really gone.
just get fox cricket. They have all the old stars.

Hey man r u from australia..
I must say, Kerry O’keefe is a very funny commentator for Kayo
Cricket is gone tbh
MOM to be shared with wicketkeeper for his keeping skills...Keeper does a good job by picking line and length of the bowler very well... And last catch of wide delivery is superb 👌🏻
Warne - Macgill, Murali - Herath, when legends are in play the most talented are in the shadows
But Herath took 433 wickets and he took just 208 wickets
@@subhajitdutta2091 80% wicket in asia poor bowlar hairath
@@azharsalmani3144 80% of his matches were in Asia, no fault of his.
@@retailinvestor8367 I think he's tryna imply that Macgill grew up in Australia, arguably the hardest place to bowl spin but they're definitely not poor bowlers and pretty hard to compare.
@@ket_wav1013 we don't know much about how the SENA pitches reacted in 80s and 90s so, we can't compare
That is some of the biggest turn and best wicket-keeping I have ever seen
@3.49 This ball is NO LESSER THAN BALL OF CENTURY...❤️
Such a shame that this guy will only be appreciated by the generation that got to watch him and then he will be lost in time... Warne's legacy will be around for generations yet...
I shed a few tears at 0:08 (c: Warne b: MacGill), 0:35 (Warne giving MacGill a bit of loving) and at all the Ansett logos.
Ansett and Shane Warne were taken away from us too soon. RIP.
*Stuart Macgill one of the underrated bowlers of Australia.*
4:03 holy moly it hit off stump!
Highest class wicketkeeping by Healy. Some of those spun and bounced ridiculous amounts. Macgill lucky enough to have two top class glovemen in Haddin for NSW and Healy for Aust.
3:48 that ball was INSANE!
Turned so sharply
Most underrated spinner of that era he was actually brilliant could be more dangerous then Warn
This video is exhibition of all types of leg spinner wickets
As I always am I was at that game. Superb spell of bowling, but.....poor old Stuey wasn’t much for celebrations and accolades, he played it quite deadpanned.
Happy birthday Stuart Mc Gill. Lots of Love
Ian Healy was such a great keeper
MacGill and Rangna Herath same underrated bowler 😍😍😍
Are you girl
One of the few cricketers overshadowed by the legend of the same team. He was absoultely in the wrong era and in wrong time. But he equally as talent as any best leg spinner of his time. Always enjoyed his bowling.
Most Underrated Australian spin bowler. if he got chance more than Warne, he would got at least 500 wickets and Slater is best short fielder in that time.
Slats was a footballer too.
@@arconeagain Which football? Soccer, AFL or NRL?
@@planetx1595 neither, NFL.
2nd best Aussie spinner ever.. if it wasnt for Warne, he would have taken +400 wickets
0:21 what a turn 4:21 3:17
3:58 the spin is incredible.
The ball landed on a crack :P
He turned the ball way more than Warne did consistently
One of the best bowlers. Unplayable at times... Unlucky to have come in the team at the time of Warne. LEGENDARY BOWLER
I think Mac gill was the best leg spinner in the world
Yes, for batsmen who couldn't play leg spin (Eng, SA, Pak -- Pak was odd one -- they were bad at playing spin for only a decade; once Misbah took over captaincy and Pak started playing in UAE there was renewed focus on both playing and bowling spin). Those who could like those of India and SL clobbered him plenty.
@@meherzan1616 Warne averaged 47 vs Ind and MacGill averaged 50 vs India. But the crucial factor Warne went at 3.1 runs an over and MacGill went at 3.65 runs an over. In a 4 man attack that is match losing. MacGill should thank his stars that he didn't have to bowl to Sidhu or Azharuddin or Kambli (they were even better players of spin).
Not, but 2nd best obviously
He could spin it furthest but Warne had better variation and more drift so they were both great but in different ways
MacGill just wasn't very adaptable. In the right conditions, his massive sidespin would make him a true threat, but in conditions that were unsuitable for big spin, he had no weapons. Unfortuantly, Australia has lots of grounds that don't offer big turn, which is why his record at grounds like Adeliade and the Gabba are poor. Warne however could thrive in any conditions, because he was able to use his topspin and drift more effectively, making him a threat on any wicket (and also not giving up freebies when the game was against them). MacGill could do some magic stuff, but Warne could just do better more consisently, whilst giving up less runs and being a far better batter and fielder.
Poms vs wrist spinners in the 90s .. hopeless !
I'd agree with your comment...
Except for that "in the 90s"...
Take that out and *YEP*
I think even Warnie would admit MacGill had the better wrongun.
Always thought warne disliked mcgill...but he is enjoying his wickets....what a team man
It's interesting that MacGill turns the ball more than Warne and yet does not achieve the same degree of drift through the air. I can only guess that this is to do with the angle of the spin, and that Warne probably bowled his stock leg-spin delivery with more top spin than MacGill. Evidence for this seems to be that Warne did at times turn the ball as much as Macgill, such as his delivery to Andrew Strauss, and this may have been when he increased the degree of side spin of his leg break. That said his lack of drift could also be a result of MacGill's more round-arm delivery action reducing the trajectory of the delivery. Does anyone have any idea?
One of the most underrated spinners. He had always been considered as second option of Shane Warne (when he was not available) but i wanted him to bowl with Shane Warne from other side . It would have been most deadliest spinning combination.
Such a magical bowler
One of the best spinners that never became "one of the best spinners of all time" by the numbers unfortunately. The man could bowl leg spin
Ian Healy was unbelievably good
The problem with McGill was once in a while he always bowled a long hop , which warne seldom did .. moreover to keep ur place in such a team with such a great pace and warne as the spinner , it was always a tough ask ..
Nevertheless he made the most of the opportunities he got !
You are dreaming... Yes MacGill bowled long hops... So did Warne...
The difference was that Warne did it deliberately, to set the batter up for his flippers!
(Which is why I never liked the flipper & would never encourage a spinner to use it. you need to bowl a number of bad balls just to get the batters used to the idea.)
@@EarlJohn61 warne like never bowled a bad ball macgill bowled one every over
He was still a fantasric bowler, expecting every bowler to be best kn everything is asking for fairies
Warne was of course better, bur mcgill would have had a outstanding career most likely for most other teams
Something I did notice. Warne tended to pitch more on leg, outside leg and turn across the righties. Occasionally middle, middle and off, especially if he's bowling a flipper. MacGill usually pitched middle, middle and off. Occasionally outside leg. Slightly different methods of going about things.
Underrated player
3:58 round the leg! Amazing skill 👏
As sachin and Dravid are for India ,warne and macgill are for australia. One in another's shadow
Yes, Sachin was so unlucky to be the understudy to Dravid... If he'd been around when Dravid wasn't, he'd have scored more, & India won less.
Absolutely horrible analogy.
@@EarlJohn61 I think I said dravid was good but he was under sachin Era...u r speaking Total . opposite
@@thesnackbandit ok why so explain...don't u think dravid was not that much celebrated bcoz of sachin ...same goes for McGill
He was so unlucky to be playing in the shane warne era!
We really were spoilt in Australia throughout the 90’s and 00’s. If the King was unavailable or having a bad day (rarely), the Prince of wrongun’s would step in.
Grotesque amount of spin. Extraordinary.
Well bowled... What a bowler
Always thought they missed a trick by not playing 2 leg spinners in India. The one time they played together in Sri Lanka in 2004, they both cleaned up together
Many comments here about how MacGill could have been this and should have been that. Couple of reminders. This is a highlight reel of, I assume, his best wicket haul. And it's at the SGC, known for it's turn. Being a leg spinner is a tough gig. When you're getting wacked around the ground, you have to find a way. And accuracy and consistency is rare in a leg spinner, so it's difficult to keep your place in a side because leggies can be very expensive, especially on wickets that don't offer a lot. So a permanent place is unlikely unless you can bat.
if he was 20yrs younger, he would be in the team right now over Lyon. He actually has one of the best strike rates amongst all spinners.
@@eyecontrol4900 you can't say that for sure, and Lyon's handy with the bat. Lyon has the track record and he's an off spinner, different kettle of fish. Like I said, consistency will leg spinners, it's more difficult to bowl and lends itself to being scored off too freely. The captain will soon lose confidence too. Take a look at who is more expensive, Lyon (longish career) or MacGill.
@@eyecontrol4900 no I just looked it up, MacGill has a better bowling average than Lyon. However, Lyon has played more than double the tests and has almost twice the wickets. So was it a durability thing with MacGill, or form, I can't remember his exit.
@@arconeagain it was that his career was concurrent with Warne... He rarely could get a game as the sole spinner unless Warne was injured.
And early on Warne was considered to be Australia's second spinner behind Tim May.
So he was only selected to either bowl with Warne, or replace Warne when Warne was injured in the later part of Warne's (& his) career.
By the time Warne retired, MacGill only had about one year left in his career & the selectors were looking for longer term options.
Had MacGill been born 5 years earlier, he would've walked into the Australian team as their first pick, and Warne would be almost unknown. Except maybe as MacGill's backup.
@@EarlJohn61 this is mostly true, but the content of my comment still stands. I am not wrong in any way.
HE IS A LEGEND
He is most underrated spinner... But my favourite spinner ...
He is underrated spinner but just shane warne the main spinner at the time. Its either selected as a backup spinner to warne or pick as the second spinner if the pitch spins a lot
I have never seen anyone spin the ball more than him even more than Murli
If he had born in Asian countries (India, Pakistan or Sri Lanka)he would be a legend
Playing Warne and Macgill together seems like such a dream nowadays. We’ll never have a better duo.
What a legend 👍👍
Beautiful bowling
You given us a top Stewie reel.
Now give us what we all want to see.....
Colin 'Funky' Miller!!!!
Stuart "leonardo decaprio" Magill
Unsung hero of assuie cricket
Stuart Macgill and Rangana Herath both are underrated players overshadowed by Warne and Muralitharan respectively
Nice LITTLE BIT of drift down the leg side... says Ian Chapel about a delivery that was among the most drifting of any in history - LOL.
SCG MacGill rightly named by his parents...also special lessons from Hick on how to throw your wicket away.😁
Most underated bowler... Played in wrong era... Else he will be legend...
His action superb
Underrated and only known by a few. Amazing
Probably the 2nd best leg spinner of all time
Yes, Bill O'Reilly was damn good!
Graham Hick one of the cricket's great enigmas!
Great bowling
That's how destiny works. Feel for macgill. He was really amazing
But he’s rising with a restaurant 😂😂 and also getting bigger, wish warnie was alive though
Most under rated bowler
The Forgotten Cricketer - Stuart MacGill
Violent spinner of the ball
If he was born in any other country then he would be called legend. He is equally dangerous as Shane Warne was
Haven't heard of him... What a bowler 👌🏻
I miss you reverse swing and reverse spin too
Big fan of Stuart macgill
What a spell of bowling! He really could give a rip and could spin the ball further than warned but unfortunately every over contained a “four” ball. In even though he played in the same era as Warne he still took over 200 wickets. Without a doubt he would of taken over 500 wickets if he was to of played in any other era
Shane definitely must have had prayed to God or have had wished this another amazing spinner for getting less chances as he truly was an amazing assett.
McGill looks like umpire Simon Tauffel😀
What a bowler.
It's my favorite player
Man he is turning the ball by miles, i wonder what if this guy would be playing in this era and he gets a chance to play on Indian pitches.
অস্ট্রেলিয়ান ক্রিকেটের গর্ব স্টুয়ার্ট ম্যাকগিল
MacGill would have been the greatest spinner of all time if in a different era. So unlucky he was around the same time as SKW
MacGill and Warne in the sane line up!! Hard luck Poms!!! Lol
And Warne was playing in that match? Wow.
Awesome
Magical Macgill
Brilliant ❤️❤️
0:40 the perfect ball, in swing leg spinner!
Forgot how much he turned the pill and tbh some of these wickets are really classic quality leg-spinner dismissals.
Sad to see what his post cricket career has become.
For me stuart is the greatest in leg spin. His offside line is so danger. Spin n bounce, too many catch. In t20 perfect bowler i believe.
I wonder what he’ll tell his grandchildren now?
World's best spinner ever..
How much spin???
How much spin? Stuart McGill : Yes
