Agreed. It was the ideal way to retire from tests and the perfect way to finish the game, although it was a fairly unremarkable test otherwise.murali getting his 800th off his final ball was pretty neat
Although Gilly went on after that.Others ......
Flintoff and Harmison in the final test of the 2009 Ashes. Fred bringing about the crucial run-out of Ponting, and Harmy taking out the tail to just about seal the win.
And I suppose we have to mention Warne, McGrath, Gilchrist, Hayden and Langer at the end of the whitewash in 2007.

Don't know if you can do much better than that as a bowler, there haven't been any hat-tricks on retirement have there?Clarrie Grimmett took 33 wickets in his last three Tests, 13 in the final one.
Though they should never actually have been his last three Tests.
