Revert[edit]

Reverted line about Ricky Ponting. First of all there is no such thing as a "domestic test". "Test cricket", by defintion, is played between national sides (and in one case, by a supra-national side, the World XI). Second the match you referenced is not even an official first class match. "Australians" is not a first class team (although it probably contained the same players as "Australia"). The game was also just two days long, a first-class game has to be at least 3 days. Third, this is a very frequent occurrence on tour matches such as the one you referenced. For example, on the recent tour match between "Pakistanis" and Leicsterschire, 4 batsman retired out. http://www.cricinfo.com/england-v-pakistan-2010/engine/current/match/426410.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.203.88.223 (talk) 00:27, 10 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

retired out is common[edit]

The text doesn't seem to conform to MCC Law 2, 9 (b) -- or the description in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cricket#Dismissals : batsmen retire all the time -- no permission required -- when the team is doing well, when they've passed a milestone like a century, and to give junior players some test experience. They can only RETURN with the opposing captain's permission. The REF shows one batsmen retired out at 150 (comment also posted at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Substitute_(cricket)#retired_out) Alanf777 (talk) 04:28, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect[edit]

I've just created Retired (cricket) by splitting out content from Substitute (cricket) and am inclined to redirect this page there (after copying the small amount of text that is not there already). Any problems with this?Spike 'em (talk) 09:47, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
