The duo confronted each other during the Windies' record-breaking three-wicket win in the final Test of the series.

But Sarwan would not reveal what was said between the two players in the clash, which forced umpire David Shepherd to step in.

"Actually both of us have apologised to each other and it's good to know that both of us did that in the context of the game," Sarwan told an Australian radio station yesterday.

"It's good to know that we have apologised to each other and appreciate each other's friendship."

Asked about the Australian team's reputation for sledging, Sarwan said the West Indies team had no grievance with Steve Waugh's team.

"I'm not sure about that, who's the leader of that (sledging), but obviously players have things to say on the field and it's up to the individual or a team if you want to take it personally.

"But, really and truly, we don't have a problem with each other.

"You just need to accept certain things that people say on the field and if you put it in the past, that's fine, but if you take it personally as well, then I think you might find yourself in a bit of trouble."

ACB chief executive James Sutherland on Tuesday told Test captain Steve Waugh to rein in his players' emotions after the unseemly outburst by McGrath.
