Retirements

Letting go of Lottie

Charlotte Edwards influenced not only the women's game but also those who covered it

09-Jun-2016•Raf Nicholson

And so it ends

In cricket, there is often no fairness to the end of a career and the way it comes, just the inevitable knowledge that it will. Which makes McCullum's exit remarkable

24-Feb-2016•Jon Hotten

The mark Chanderpaul left on me

His retirement has not only marked the end of an era in batting, it marks for some of us the snapping of the final link to childhood

09-Feb-2016•Liam Cromar

Chanderpaul's lesson

His career, with its excellence and its quirks, tells us that cricket is big enough to contain everything and everyone

26-Jan-2016•Jon Hotten

The curious case of Younis Khan's ODI career

They said he would never make it as a Test batsman, but he proved them wrong. He couldn't quite do it in 50-overs cricket, though

13-Nov-2015•Hassan Cheema

When Harris grimaced, Australia smiled

Equal parts carthorse and strike bowler, whether fit and firing or bruised and shrugging away pain, he bowled for wins, and more often than not he got them

07-Jul-2015•Russell Jackson

Boom Boom Afridi: one of a kind

Shahid Afridi entertained us with his unique brand of cricket and surely left a lasting impression on the game. He was cricket's greatest entertainer. Boom Boom is irreplaceable

25-Mar-2015•Uzair Rizvi

Is there such a thing as an ideal retirement?

The decision to quit is an acutely difficult one, and many cricketers trip up when it's their turn to take it

03-Sep-2014•Samir Chopra

When sportsmen stop caring enough

The body and mind may be fit enough but athletes often retire when overcome by a profound weariness. Cases in point: Ponting and Swann

06-Apr-2014•Jonathan Wilson

Sanga and Mahela, a partnership for the ages

Anand Vasu, in Wisden India, encapsulates the impact Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara have had on Sri Lanka cricket

06-Apr-2014

Highlights from the Tendulkar retirement reel

It was a time for wrenching emotion, frank outpourings, and high-pressure hoses

18-Nov-2013•R Rajkumar

The perfect end

The best retirements require struggle, one last victory over the forces of entropy, the century made from unpromising beginnings through teary eyes

18-Nov-2013•Jonathan Wilson

Goodbye Sachin

A photograph from the previous time Philip Brown snapped Sachin Tendulkar, in tribute to the great Indian sportsman who'll soon be retiring from the game

13-Oct-2013•Philip Brown

The kid who finally had to grow up

To this fan, Sachin Tendulkar is a kid who managed to extend his childhood beyond its definition

13-Oct-2013•Rajan Thambehalli

Harmison, the enforcer

A chronicle of Steve Harmison's career, from the highs of Ashes 2005 and helping Durham to consecutive County Championships, to a low-key farewell from Test cricket

09-Oct-2013•Ross Lawson

The enigma of Harmy

The gap between his greatest and lowest moments frustrated spectators, but it also indicated the possibilities he could offer

08-Oct-2013•Jon Hotten

Harmison of Sabina and elsewhere

His unpredictability could be frustrating, but perhaps the truth of his career and his personality was that he was somebody at his best out of the limelight

06-Oct-2013•Jonathan Wilson

The sportsman's cliff

What must it be like to face your mortality just when your peers in other fields are beginning to excel in their professions?

30-Jul-2013•Jon Hotten

Mathew Sinclair: from riches to rags

Mathew Sinclair burst onto the Test arena with a double-hundred, yet been forced to quit the game to secure himself and his family a means to a living

17-Jul-2013•Freddie Wilde

Two Chris Martin stories

A dropped catch and a nervous innings - they don't portray him in a good light, yet somehow they do
