He retired for Tests after the Ashes. He hasn't played any ODIs since then because he's injured.

And the thread title's a bit offensive really (or unneccessarily startling at best), so I'm going to change it. Show a bit more tact next time.

When has a retired player ever been described as "dead"?

Never once heard it before.

Have heard Bradman described as dead - he's retired. I thought there was talk Flintoff was coming out of Test retirement for the Ashes.
