Aussie Watson to retire after World T20
Print Edition
VETERAN Australian allrounder Shane Watson said yesterday that he would retire from international cricket at the end of the ongoing World Twenty20 tournament in India.
Watson, 34, shared his decision to call it quits with teammates in Mohali, where Australia takes on Pakistan in a World T20 group match today, Cricket Australia said.
Watson had retired from test cricket at the end of last year’s Ashes tour of England and has not played one-day internationals since September last year.
An opening batsman and a reliable pacer, Watson scored 5,757 runs from 190 ODIs.
He also took 168 ODI wickets and holds the Australian record for the highest ODI score, an unbeaten 185 against Bangladesh in Dhaka in 2011.
