The game of cricket is gradually spreading its foot around the world. Cricket is going to get a different place in the world even with the return to 2028 Olympics. Players in athletic games like football, cricket and rugby are usually retired by the age of 40. Talking about cricket here, there was no age rule regarding debut, but now at least 15 years have been set for debut. Is the ICC made a rule for retirement in the same way? Here you will get the answer to this question.
Has ICC made rules for retirement?
There is no such rule in the International Cricket Council (ICC) Rules, which forces the players to retire at a fixed age. Players can announce retirement whenever they want. Usually a cricketer announces retirement when his fitness level has started falling or his form is going bad continuously.
Cricket can announce retirement whenever you want. A recent example of this is Nicholas Puran of West Indies, who retired at the age of just 29 years. On the other hand, some veterans like Sachin Tendulkar, James Anderson and Misbah ul Haq had retired after crossing the age of 40. India’s Praveen copper may not have been able to play international cricket at any time, but at the age of 41, he made his IPL debut and set new standards for the players.
It is also a rule that the board, any player or any institution of a country cannot force a cricketer to retire. Retirement is a personal decision of a player.
