On Wednesday, the veteran speedster took to Twitter to explain his decision in a series of tweets. A member of India’s 2007 ICC T20 World Cup-winning team, Sreesanth’s international career came to a standstill for involvement in a spot-fixing scandal. He was currently playing domestic cricket for Kerala, but has now decided to call it a day.
