MacGill announces retirement!!


The rookie leg spinner of Australia, Stuart MacGill has announced his retirement. He was asked to take up the responsibility of the spin department after the departure of Shane Warne. But MacGill couldn't quite work the magic. His latest matches haven't been much fruitful and an extended knee injury had hindered him more and more. MacGill who is 37 years old will be playing his last game at Antigua. He has taken 208 wickets so far in 44 Test matches. He feels that its time to retire and give chances to young budding spinners in the Australian team. Beau Casson is lined up next to be a part of the Australian Cricket team.
