Sometimes, a retirement announcement goes unnoticed. This usually happens when a player bids one particular format of the game. On that note, here, we take a look at the list of three players you might not know who announced retirement in 2024.
1) Heinrich Klaasen – Tests
One of the best T20 batters at the moment, Klaasen retired from Tests early this year. This might have helped him in the roadmap for the rest of his career.
Klaasen is at his peak in the white-ball formats right now. If Aiden Markram’s poor form continues, Klaasen could also become a captain soon.
2) Saurabh Tiwary announced retirement in 2024 from all formats
Saurabh Tiwary is one of the players you might not know who announced retirement in 2024. It needs to be noted that he is just 35 years old.
If not for India, he could have been a part of the domestic events. However, Saurabh Tiwary decided to seek opportunities across the globe.
3) Shakib Al Hasan – Test and T20I
Arguably the best cricketer that has come out from Bangladesh, it was a bit shocking to see Shakib Al Hasan retire from two formats.
While the T20I format was understandable, considering his influence in the Test format, he could have continued for a few more years.
