The rumours about Pat Cummins are well known. But are two other modern Aussie greats about to walk away? 😲
Whether Cummins remains the captain or not, his Test career is far from over.Aussies retain Ashes on rain-soaked day five
Veteran opener Warner has flagged his retirement following the next Australian summer, while his batting partner Usman Khawaja is also 36 years old. The intriguing one is superstar batter Smith, who has been coy about his own retirement plans but indicated winning an Ashes series in England is one of the few items not ticked off his bucket list.
If the Aussies win, or draw, at The Oval to clinch a first Ashes win overseas since 2001, it's been mooted that Smith may pull up stumps on his remarkable career."The whisper was - and I have no idea where they're getting this whisper - but that Warner, if he plays at The Oval, it'll probably be his last ," Vaughan said."Again I'm not too sure where they've got that.
It's no secret the current Australian playing group has fallen short of a couple of key indicators for great Test teams - winning in India, and winning in England.The Aussies lost 2-1 in India earlier this year. If they lose to England at The Oval, forcing a drawn series, a major question mark will forever hang over their legacy.
