Binga Retires

[Chip and Chase]

Has called it quits on all forms of international cricket. Will still play Big Bash and IPL.

May have hung on for a season or two too long, but has been a great servant of Australian Cricket. Could have had a much better record if not for a lot of injuries along the way. It's a testament to him that he kept coming back after every breakdown.

Body was never going to keep up with the riggors of pace bowling, especially his speed.

Was exciting to watch and when you compare the fast bowlers of McGrath/Lee/Gillespey to the last few years you can see a huge gap.

Hopefully this new crop can get over their injuries and stick around for a while
