Brett Lee signs up for ' last likely' domestic Big Bash stint
Sydney, May 22 : Former Australian fast bowler Brett Lee has reportedly signed up for another season of domestic stint in the Big Bash League, but has admitted that it could be his last.
The former Test bowler has signed with domestic Australian side, the Sydney Sixers, for another season of domestic cricket, but said that he would only continue to play if he can maintain his consistent hitting bowling pace of 150 kilometer per hour.
According to News.com.au, Lee said that he is just going to wait and see how he feels after Christmas, adding that the thing he has always said is that he wants to bowl at 150 km/h, but if he cannot deliver that then he would not play any longer.
Lee said that he achieved his bowling paces again last year, which had been so important for him personally, but added that he would not hold on until he starts to fade off and slides down that 'greasy pole'.
The paceman said that he wants to go out on top, so it could well and truly be his last season.
Lee, who retired from international cricket two years ago, feels grateful to the Twenty20 format for providing him with the opportunity to extend his career and is pleased to have the next 12 months at the SCG, which has been his home for over 20 years, the report added.
