Both these players retired one year after i had bought them into the test team. This also happened a few years later with E.Smith. All 3 batsman were quality players and iam struggling to find any decent bats. They were all in there twenty's. Has this happened before to anyone else?

None of those happened for me (though I did play with W'shire for a bit) but even now in 2010 Bell and Bassano still feature in the English XI
SIX AND OUT
U19 12th Man
yeah, lucky for me Bassano, Pietersen, Bell and Strauss are all still in as they are helping my team with the bat
BUT......
Ashley Giles - who I named test player of the year and won the actual Mikey's Medal both times - had retired after the 2004 season, pretty sure he was delisted and not picked up. I remember when playing County Career and i picked him up with Surrey around that time. Hope it doesnt happen again.
