Shane Warne: Unofficial retirement

The rumors are at the moment that Shane Warne is going to be retiring from cricket. Nothing is official and at the moment it could just be rumours.

So, farewell then Shane Warne
Pity you didn't do it
Before the Adelaide Oval

Or even the English one

"Come back, Shane, come back!"

Yes, that will be Ricky Ponting's catchphrase

Its official now and the game will be poorer for it, certainly as he had at least one more ashes in him.

Great Bowler Retires

We is a true great but I can see he wants to go before the current great aussie team crumbles. Martyns gone, Now Warne Mcgrath will go after world cup, Gilchrest, Langer Haydn will soon follow Mcgill is 35 I think Warne went before he was in a team no longer up to his high standard. England will get Ashes back next home series

Next Ashes

Well I think England will win the next ashes as most of the great players in the current side will have retired Hussey will be 33/34 Lee 33, Yes there is some good batsmen still there such as Hussey Jaques will be good player by then but there is not the quality in the next generation of Aussies bowlers who are as good as Mcgrath and Warne. Cook Bell Strauss Pieterson Monty Freddie Saj Jimmy Hoggy Freddie should all still be around in 2 years
