He's Got The Edge
They say all good things come to an end, and this one surely did. An absolute privilege to have been born in this time and to have witnessed one of the most remarkable things to happen to the game of cricket. He gave the game a new meaning, a talent so immaculate yet so diverse, so consistent yet so different, so much movement and yet so steady.
It's always sad when someone has to go, but now we also know that going out can be pleasant. It depends on the talent itself. I don't remember when was the first time I saw you, but I was a fan since day one. Whatever I have to show off in terms of my achievements in this game is in a way because of you, more than anyone else.
The three things that will always stand out for me and I would always like to include in my personality will be consistency, bearing a smile with the bat and that shake of the head.
You will always be a champion.

What a way to go out though. He IS, and will remain, a great cricketer.
P.S: btw, he was also one of the most prominent sledgers on the field!!!!
