Trusty Rusty calls it a day

Shouts of "Rusty jou lekker ding!" will never again echo around a South African cricket ground. Their inspiration, Rusty Theron, has retired from the game in this country. He will, however, still be seen in Twenty20s around the world.A flame-haired flame-thrower of a fast bowler who took an Olympian approach to batting - hit the ball faster, higher, stronger, dammit - Theron's decision to quit at the unripe age of 30 was partly prompted by a stubborn knee problem.
