"I don't expect to play one-day cricket for Australia anymore".


This was the statement given by the legend who has scored 13,704 runs with an outstanding average of 42.03, runner up to Sachin Tendulkar.He was dropped out of the team after he scored just 18 runs in five innings of CB series.However this disappointing dismissal of a legendary player is not the first for Cricket Australia.Michael Bevan also retired the same way.
