Three Champions Retire...
There can't be a more fitting farewell for three champions who made amazing contribution not only to the Australian cricket but to the game of Cricket as a whole. "Ashes cleansweep after 86 years". What a gift to give to Justin Langer, Glenn McGrath and Shane Warne. Most of the cricket fans agree GM and SW are cricketers of highest level and it is almost impossible to fill in the voids they create by leaving. Though, McGrath confirmed of no returns to test cricket, it's been a fantastic career for him to look back. SW, tormented by Indian batsmen in his first series, took revenge on the batsmen by conjuring an unplayable when it is most needed. When it comes to Justing Langer, he only reminds me of a true Australian,wearing "Never Give-up Attitude". It will be an injustice to "Cricket", if we don't recognise his efforts in giving fantastic starts to Australian innings time and again, at a fantastic strike-rate. I miss those typical SW deliveries and GM consistency... Time goes on and so do fantastic players.
