Lancs star Law in retirement hint
Stuart law
Law averages over 50 for Lancashire this season, hitting three centuries
Lancashire batsman Stuart Law admitted he is considering retirement after hitting a record-breaking 206 against Yorkshire at Headingley on Saturday.

The Australian-born 38-year-old admits life is getting "harder and harder" at the top level and is not sure whether he wants to play on next season.

"It's up in the air. There's a bit of water to pass under bridge between now and then [retirement]," he said.

"I've got to be fair to myself and the club. I have plenty of thinking to do."

Law has now been with Lancashire for six years, and he claims to be in the form of his career.

After a day's play the body's in bits, rigor mortis setting in. It's getting harder and harder

He said: "I'm seeing the ball better than I've ever done before - maybe because there's no pressure to forge a career. I've done that. Now it's about enjoying yourself and having a good time.

"Hopefully I won't be rushed into a decision. It'd be nice to sit back, reflect and see where I'm at.

"It's tempting to say 'Be remembered for the player you are, not the player you were'.

"After a day's play the body's in bits, rigor mortis setting in. It's getting harder and harder."
