Kallis to retire from Tests

[Lord]

Jacques Kallis has announced that he will retire from Test cricket after the Boxing Day match against India. Cricket South Africa tweeted the news on Wednesday afternoon. In a statement, Kallis said: "It wasn't an easy decision, with Australia around the corner and the success this team is enjoying, but I feel the time is right. I don't see it as goodbye, I still have a lot of hunger to push South Africa to that World Cup in 2015 if I am fit and performing." More to follow

No point else to continue for him, he's done it all as far as tests is concerned.

The most underrated superstar of cricket.This man is a giant and true all rounder , there was nothing he would not and could not do on the field. He saved last test match for his team by picking up slack of Morkel and Steyn and picking up three huge wickets.
