Gilly announces retirement

Great career for Gilly all the best in the future.:thumbsup

 

I would seriously consider playing young west aussie batsmen/keeper Luke Ronchi.

 

And thats why we have no West Australian selectors.

 

when did gilly announce this,is the india test his last?awesome player

 

Finally, the time has come.

Ronchi is very good. But in Haddin you have a keeper batsman who will most likely average 10 more than Healy or Marsh did, and be just as good with the gloves. Haddin is fit, and can play for 6, maybe 7 years. The selectors can not pass that up.

I will make a big statement. Haddin is the second best keeper/batsman ever, even with not having played a test. Its a dam shame he is coming after Gilly, because he will never live up to that. But had Haddin come after Healy or Marsh, he would go down as a great.

 

Good article Gav.

There is still room at the top of the Mundine express :deal

Great, great player. One of the few that actually made me want to watch cricket

Respect

 

not a for gone conclusion that it'll be haddin, think there could be a surprise!

 

Good point, got me there

Andy Flower is a bit forgotton and under rated. But how about Sangakara, what an impressive record:good

Haddin will make it for sure. Rochni is 26yo and Haddin does everything better than Rochni. Cricket Australia have invested in Haddin.

 

yeh good on gilly...i had a feeling he'd call it quits this summer...
