International Coach
He was just worn out I think. He'd had the underarm thing in the preceding summer and he's said since then he was mentally shot. It was a weird time in Aus cricket with the putting back together after WSC. Guys were well paid cf before hand, but I think he also had some business interests which he wanted to work on.

Don't get me wrong, he was a properly great player. But for me when you're choosing between players of a similar calibre, that sort of thing comes into it. It doesn't for everyone, but each to their own.
Yeah that doesn't reflect well on him.
