Adam Gilchrist has finally called it a day. Not that he has decided to retire when he is at the peak of his career. He had been saying for some time that his body wasn’t responding fully to the needs of international cricket. He needs to be praised for realising and accepting the reality and quitting before being kicked out!

Australian cricketers have time and again chosen to retire when at their peak. This includes Warne and McGrath last year. Sadly this is not true for Indians. We have some stubborn gentlemen heel bent on being kicked out.
