Wriddhiman Saha decides to retire from cricket after current domestic season

| @indiablooms | Nov 04, 2024, at 08:52 pm

Former Indian wicket-keeper Wriddhiman Saha, who is considered one of the finest players to play for the national side behind the stumps, announced his retirement from all formats of the game on Monday.

Saha said he will represent Bengal in the current domestic season for the last time.

In his X post, Saha wrote: " After a cherished journey in cricket, this season will be my last. I’m honored to represent Bengal one final time, playing only in the Ranji Trophy before I retire. Let’s make this season one to remember!"

Saha was dropped from central contract in 2023.

In his career, Saha played 40 Tests and 9 ODIs.  

He featured as India's wicket-keeper in Test cricket after MS Dhoni retired.

It is time to see whether he will play in the 2025 edition of the Indian Premier League.

Saha made his last Test appearance in 2021 in a match against New Zealand.

In his IPL career, Saha featured for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Punjab Kings (PBKS), Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Gujarat Titans (GT).
