I never want Ricky to retire. The last remaining cricketer from my childhood of watching Australia dominate. 150 Tests, and I can easily wheel out 50 or 60 great innings (today was one of them)

As a "champion Australian sportsman, all-time great cricketer"- Where does he stand next to Border and Waugh?
How would losing 3 Ashes series hurt his legacy?

Gonna be worse when Hussey and Clarke are gone as well. We'll have no one in the side who knows what it feels like to dominate an opposition, just crush them, again and again and again. --- Ponting >>>>>>> Waugh. Possibly > Border, but it's a tough call given I've never seen Border play live. |

I do feel for Ponting, he has captained Australia through a period of dramatic change losing so many great players at once. A very similar situation to Border, but unlike Border, Ponting doesn't have a decade to mould the team into his own image and he has had to battle with his own decline in form with age. |
