Thank GOD!!!
4 ur decision, this kind of decision creats opportunity for young talents.
by the way, u r unique, n will miss ur offside excellence.
He needed to be shown the door for a very long time…I mean It’s only India where we see flabby sportspersons, who can’t run!
When the good days are over..they just are! You can’t be young forever
I think he has made the right decision and more importantly at the right time. He still has that hunger for runs as is evident from his resolute batting in the 2 tests so far. He’s retiring at his peak! We’ll miss u Sourav!
