Jacques Kallis to retire from Tests

Durban: South Africa’s legendary all-rounder Jacques Kallis will retire from Test cricket after the second Test against India starting at Kingsmead on Thursday. Kallis, 38, however, will be available for the shorter formats of the game.

Kallis made his Test debut as a young and humble 20 year-old, and finishes his Test career as one of the greatest cricketers to have played the game. His statistics speak volumes for the illustrious career – 13,174 runs, 292 wickets and 199 catches.
