Glenn Donald McGrath, AKA Pigeon, was an Australian fast bowler who represented the Baggy Green from 1993 to 2007. McGrath picked up his 300th wicket in his 64th match against the West Indies at Perth in 2000, when he had Brian Lara caught by Staurt MacGill.

Lara's wicket was the second of a hattrick that also included the scalps of Sherwin Campbell and Jimmy Adams.

McGrath eventually retired from Test cricket in 2007 with 563 wickets to his name.
