retirement of heroes...
last night, a korean super-celebrity... who 'retired' just over a year ago after being caught out for tax fraud, returned to TV amidst mixed comments from the people.... just to blow that into insignificance...
two of my childhood idols announced their retirement.... Chan Ho Park, and Ricky Ponting.... im not sure if it is a blessing that i get to see Ricky Ponting's last test match starting today....
personally, i would have liked him to play on... despite him saying that there are plenty of other players who could replace him in the spot and make runs.... im not sure.... they have been trialled and tested... and nobody has really put their hand up.... ah well... i hope he makes some good runs at the WACA in his final test... even a 96 to equal his first test at the WACA in 1995 would be good....
Chan Ho Park... huge slide in form since leaving the Dodgers.... but still an ambassador for baseball in Korea... i thought it was awesome that he came back to korea and played in the domestic league even knowing that the team he played for would struggle throughout the season... and it was great seeing him pitch at such a high level too.... honourable, respectable figure....
cheers to both legends~!!

Pointing's retirement is just not end of one magnificent career but a deep friendly rivalry which we posses as die hard india fans. At a movement we may feel that a Australia is easy to counter but we also will miss great excitement in play we use to posses in watching the game. His strong & anchoring stands against any ball attack which make us every ball count will be missed. There will be many good players but a rare breed of test players like him will be always felt missing.
