Legspinner will leave in Sydney
Peter English - December 21, 2006
Shane Warne, the most successful bowler in Test history, will retire after the final match of the Ashes series in Sydney. Warne told a news conference at the MCG he was ready to end his 15-year international career, but not before a push for a 5-0 result against England.
"I sit here a very happy man getting that urn back and I'm going to announce my retirement from international cricket, domestic cricket for Victoria and St Kilda as well," he said in the Melbourne Cricket Club's members' dining room. "It's been unbelievable. I think my journey and my ride in international cricket has been phenomenal. To have that opportunity to walk off in Sydney, where it all began a long time ago, where the ride began, then I think that's a great opportunity and something to celebrate with the team.

Boje slams South African selection policies

Jet: Shot down too soon?
Malaria alone does not account for
every man who wakes in a cold sweat
at night, trembling with stomach churning
nausea. In South Africa
those chilling symptoms are shared
by every brave soul who shoulders
the task of coaching a national sports team.
Following the sudden retirement of Nicky Boje, South Africa have included left-arm spinner Paul Harris in their squad for the remaining two Tests against India. He is the only newcomer in the 15-member squad and the second spinner, alongwith Paul Adams.
Haroon Lorgat made the announcement in Johannesburg today shortly after South Africa suffered a 123-run defeat in the first Test at the Wanderers. He added that Morne Morkel, the fast bowler who impressed in the tour game against the Indians at Potchefstroom, had been kept on standy as both Dale Steyn and Andrew Hall have fitness concerns.
