Waugh, who played until he was 38, said some hard decisions needed to be made before next year's Ashes series against England. "At some stage players have to move on. I mean, he's 37, 38 -- that sort of age.
You've got to look towards where the future is, so it's always a tricky decision," The Australian newspaper quoted Waugh as saying.
