Of course the retirement of Warne and McGrath will have an effect on the performance of the Australian Cricket Team, but not enough of an effect to knock Australia from the number one test nation position. Stuart Clark is a very similar bowler to McGrath just look at his recirnt performances... man of the series against South Africa, took the most wickets out of any bowlers in the Ashes, he is looking like being the next Glen McGrath. As for Warne, there is no replacing him he is the best bowler ever. Stuart Magill will come walk into the test side, he is the second best leg spinner in the world at the moment, any other country he would walk into the test side. He has played 40 tests for 198 wickets with an average of 27.20 and economy rate of 3.16.... http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/australia/content/player/6441.html The only problem is he will be almost if not 37 by the time Australia plays their next test
