England fast bowler Steven Finn has announced his retirement from professional cricket on Monday (August 14). Finn suffered a knee injury in 2023 and hasn't played a game in red-ball cricket in over a year.

"Today I am retiring from all forms of cricket with immediate effect," Finn said in a statement. "I have been fighting a battle with my body for the last 12 months and have admitted defeat to it. I feel incredibly lucky to have been able to play cricket as my vocation since I made my debut for Middlesex in 2005. The journey hasn't always been smooth, but I have loved it nonetheless.

"To have played 125 games for England, including 36 tests, far surpassed what I dreamed of. I retire with some amazing memories with England, Middlesex and Sussex, shared with fantastic people. Those will live with me forever."

Target to get the knee right and making sure it's ready to go when time comes - Williamson

  Kane Williamson ruptured his ACL on the opening night of IPL 2023 © Getty Will he? Won't he? That's been the big question around Kane Williamson and his race to fitness ever since he ruptured his ACL on the opening night of IPL 2023. There's less than two months to go for the World Cup but it must be said that for an injury that takes its time to heal, Williamson has done really well to get back to facing throwdowns in just around four months after the injury. Williamson was guarded while speaking about his recovery but did admit to entertaining thoughts of "earlier targets" given how he has been tracking. "If the knee is at a stage where that can be a reality, that's great, but it very much is about getting it right and making sure it is ready to go when that time comes - whenever that time is," Williamson said ahead of a net session in Mount Maunganui. "You do have some good days, then you have a few variable ones. It's all part of the j...

Fawad Alam quits Pakistan cricket for career in USA

  Fawad Alam turns 37 in October this year. © Getty Out of favor batter Fawad Alam has called time on his Pakistan career that spanned for 15 years. Alam, who turns 37 in October, will turn up as a 'local' player for the Chicago Kingsmen in Minor League Cricket T20, a tournament that underpins USA's just concluded flagship T20 tournament Major League Cricket (MLC). He joins a long list of Pakistan players like Sami Aslam, Hammad Azam, Saif Badar and Mohammad Mohsin who moved bases to USA to ply their trade in the country. Although he made his white ball debut for Pakistan in 2007, Alam's presence has been sporadic at best in the Pakistan dressing room. Notching up a ton on Test debut in 2009, he was dropped a couple of Tests later and played his next Test after a gap of 11 years, despite amassing mountains of runs with an average of 55 in the domestic circuit. Alam established himself in the Test team for a brief period after his career got a new lease of life in 2020. ...

'It was Ben's call': Buttler on Stokes's return for ODI World Cup

  by    Cricbuzz Staff   •    Published on   Fri, Aug 18, 2023, 04:44 PM Share Tweet Jos Buttler said badgering Stokes about coming back wouldn't have worked © Getty England's white-ball captain Jos Buttler maintained that Ben Stokes's  return from ODI retirement  was purely the all-rounder's decision and that the team management took negligible initiative in this regard. Stokes, who had retired from the 50-over format in July 2022, reversed his stance earlier this week and was named in England's provisional World Cup squad. It was after the recently-concluded Ashes series that Stokes decided to communicate his decision to Buttler. The England and Wales Cricket Board had (ECB) left the whole matter in the skipper's hands, given Buttler's well-known rapport with Stokes. While numerous discussions had reportedly happened between the two, the ball had been left in the all-rounder's court. "To be honest, it was Ben's call," Buttler said. "...
