Brett Lee ends Test career

Australia fast bowler, Brett Lee, has announced his retirement from Test cricket with immediate effect.
The 33-year-old says he will aim to regain his place in Australia\'s 20/Twenty and One-Day International teams and wants to play in the 2011 World Cup.
A veteran of 76 Tests, he struggled to recover from elbow surgery in December.
Lee has been plagued by injuries since making his Test debut against India in 1999.
In his prime, the New South Wales star was the fastest bowler in the world and part of a feared Australia bowling quartet alongside Glenn McGrath, Jason Gillespie and Shane Warne.
Lee missed the entire 2009 Ashes series after struggling with a side strain, and a subsequent operation on his elbow has pushed a return date even further back.
