PERTH, Dec 8: Pakistan batsman Yousuf Youhana has pinpointed fast bowler Glen McGrath as Australia's danger man ahead of the upcoming Test series.

Yousuf, who forms the backbone of the tourists' batting order with captain Inzamamul Haq, said he rated McGrath as the "perfect" bowler and Pakistan's greatest obstacle in the three-Test series.

"I think McGrath is the best bowler I've faced of any fast bowler - except for Pakistani fast bowler Wasim (Akram), he's the best bowler I think ever," said Yousuf. "But McGrath is the perfect bowler for me."

The right-hander scored 95 and 75 in his maiden Test in Australia - in Brisbane in 1999-2000 - but found runs hard to get thereafter, scoring just 37 in four subsequent innings.

"After (Brisbane) they planned (for) me and they are professional, the best team in the world, but hopefully I will make some runs this time," Yousuf said. Yousuf and Inzamam refused to speculate on whether Australia might select the resurgent pace man Brett Lee alongside McGrath and Jason Gillespie for the first Test on Perth's bouncy, fast wicket starting next Thursday. -AFP
