Matthew Hayden's life after cricket

"Today I'm announcing my retirement from representative cricket effective immediately."

- Matthew Hayden, 13.1.09 (source: ABC)

He's played charity matches for bushfire and flood victims, and he's been the off-field ambassador for the Imparja Cup, but as I speak the Queenslander with "Indian Cements" and "29" on his back is about to take strike against Zaheer Khan. And gets a single straight away, but not before he had to watch Parthiv Patel fall to a Tendulkar catch off Slinger Malinga at the other end.

Matty clubs two fours in a row off Malinga. Next over he skies one to the keeper who puts it down. Currently 10*(8), CSK 19/2 from four overs.
