During the Australia v NZ game the current standings on the Player of the tournament was shown very briefly , and McGrath is way ahead.
If I remember McGrath was on 12 , Someone else on 9 (could by Styris or Hayden) and Mahela Jayawardene was 3rd on 8 points.
Apparently the commentators give 3 , 2 , 1 point after each game to three players and these have been tallied so far to give the above score.
I would think unless those within striking distance of McGrath do a Man of the Match performance in the next 2 games and McGrath fails to score a single point in the next 2 games, he has pretty much nailed the player of the World Cup award.
