As the earthquake occurred in West Indies cricket, last month, Nicholas Puran announced his retirement at the age of 29. Now veteran all -rounder Andre Russell has also announced retirement. He will play in the first 2 matches of the upcoming T20 series against Australia, which will be the last 2 matches of Russell’s career. There are many other West Indies players who can join Nicholas Puran and Andre Russell in the list of retiring players.

Kyle Mayors

Kyle Myers is known for his rapid batting and is a batting all -rounder by profession. After making a debut for the West Indies in 2020, the Mayor has so far taken 2,371 runs and 48 wickets representing the West Indies team in 84 international matches. But the Mayors are running out of the West Indies team since June 2024. Last year, he also got a place in the team as a replacement in the T20 World Cup, but the expectation of returns in the team of mayors running out of the team for a year is very rare.

Rovman pole

Rowman Powell is also one of those players who play a lot of T20 franchise cricket worldwide. Powell, who was appointed the captain of the West Indies T20 team for the T20 World Cup 2024 last year, was dismissed from the captaincy this year. He was last seen playing in the match against Ireland, in which he scored just 2 runs. If Powell is not able to retain his form after being removed from the captaincy, then his leaf can be cut from the team.

Andre fletcher

Andre Fletcher has been active in the West Indies T20 team after 2016. Top orders bat, but after December 2024, they have not played any matches for the West Indies team. His age will soon cross 38 and his T20 figures have not been very special in the recent past. All these aspects Fletcher hardly let the West Indies team come back.
