Adam Gilchrist's retirement hurts children

Hi5_narrowweb__200x221 Gilly is a universally respected figure in cricket and any mention of his name will lead to much admiration and puffing of cheeks at the man's talent and integrity. 

However, the reverence that accompanied his retirement has splintered today as it was revealed that this action led to many children suffering a loss that no child should endure: the resignation of the blonde girl from Hi-5!

That's right folks, Charli Delaney took the wicketkeepers lead.  "Gilchrist retired the same day as my last show in Perth and I'm a cricket tragic," Delaney, 27, said. "I woke up to his speeches and it put me in a reflective mood. I thought: 'thanks Gilly'"

For shame Adam, how could you?
