Collingwood could quit after SCG test

England middle-order batsman has admitted that the fifth Test in Sydney could be his last. Collingwood, playing his 67th Test, has made 70 runs in the series.

Struggling with form in the ongoing Ashes series, England middle-order batsman Paul Collingwood has admitted that the fifth Test in Sydney could be his last.

Collingwood, playing his 67th Test, has made 70 runs in the series. He acknowledged it will be difficult to be in the side if he does not score in Sydney. “My form during this series and most recently my latest failure in the fourth Test in Melbourne means the subject of my Test future was bound to be raised sooner or later,” Collingwood said.
