NICHOLAS Pooran stunned the cricketing world and broke West Indian hearts yesterday as he announced his retirement from international cricket at just 29 years old.
Pooran, one of the most dynamic batters of his generation, confirmed his decision in an emotional statement on social media platform Instagram as he thanked fans for their “unwavering support” throughout his career.
“After much thought and reflection, I’ve decided to announce my retirement from international cricket. This game we love has given and will continue to give so much—joy, purpose, unforgettable memories, and a chance to represent the people of the West Indies. Wearing that maroon, standing for the anthem, and giving everything I had each time I stepped on the field…it’s hard to put into words what that means to me. To have led the team as captain is a privilege I will always hold close to my heart,” Pooran posted.
