Sanga, Clarke and Rogers wont be there in the cricketing field as an international player anymore. However a lot of cricketing fans including me will remember them for the lifetime.
Sanga
I remember the time when he first came into the cricketing arena. I was little bit worried when he came, because he actually put an end to Romesh Kaluwithrana's carrier..Kalu known for his hard hitting was a good player to watch. But slowly I understood what a player Sangakkara is. A lot of double centuries to watch, but a good 90 against India in a one day where SL almost chased an impossible target was the one of my pick.
Clarke
World cup winning captain. What more you want. A captain playing for his team. I remember when he first came into the team in West Indies tour. Young, energetic. Normally Aus wont give chances to a player that early. But Pup was lucky enough to be in the team and utilized his chances including a 151 against India in India. His 329* was one of the innings where he declared when there was a chance to score more, considering his team above his personal milestones.
Rogers
If you didnt get chance in 20's, there are good 30's for you. Rogers was motivational. I still remember the first match he played against India back in 2008. It was all Langer and Hayden at that time. Suddenly Rogers and Jacques got a chance to open. But unfortunately scores for 4 and 16 put an end to his career at that time, but he made a strong comeback in 2013. Kudos to the selectors for giving him chance. He scored lot of runs there after, but his consectutive 50's this year for me was the pick of all of those.
All the best to all the three players. We will surely miss you.
