Andrew Symonds
Andrew Symonds (born 9 June 1975, Birmingham, England) is a former Australian cricket team all-rounder. A two-time World Cup winner, Symonds is a right-handed middle order batsman and alternates between medium pace and off-spin bowling. He also is considered exceptionally talented when it comes to fielding.Since mid-2008, he spent most of the time out of the team, due to disciplinary reasons, including alcohol.[1] In June 2009 he was sent home from the 2009 World Twenty20, his third suspension, expulsion or exclusion from selection in the space of a year. His central contract was then withdrawn,[2] and many cricket analysts have speculated that the Australian administrators will no longer tolerate him, and that Symonds may announce his retirement.[3] On 16 February 2012, Symonds announced his retirement from all forms of cricket, in an attempt to concentrate on his family life.[4]
