There are a lot of top players in their late 30s at the moment (Ponting, Tendulkar, Dravid, Kallis, Laxman, Chanderpaul to name a few) Do you think we'll see a mass announcement of retirements after the world cup next year?
Firstly you are way too biased against Aussies to be taken seriously. Secondly Dravid isn't old and can play till 2014?????? He's the oldest player I mentioned at just a few days short of 38 If he played until 2014 he would be 42 years old. Kallis as well is over 37 and would be 42 if he played to 2015. You obviously don't know what you're talking about.
Shivam you have proved you don't know what you'e talking about. Bradman was born in August 1908 and played his last test in August 1948 making him........40 when he retired not 50.
Modern players are way more fragile than the players of yesteryear, I don't remember players like Hadlee, Crowe, Border, Richards, Gavaskar etc sitting out many tests through injury yet the players of today seem to sit out quite often through either injury or resting. The oldest player still playing recently has been Jayasuriya and he played his last ODI a year ago at the age of......40. See why I don't think Dravid and Kallis will make it to 42?
