Ajinkya Rahane retires from international cricket with immediate effect

Former India captain Ajinkya Rahane has bid farewell to international cricket after being out of the national team for more than three years. His last appearance for India came way back in July 2023 in the Test tour of the West Indies. This was the same series where Yashasvi Jaiswal made his international debut.

Rahane posted a video on his official Instagram handle to confirm that he is retiring from all formats of international cricket with immediate effect. The right-handed batter played 85 Tests, 90 ODIs, and 20 T20Is for the Men in Blue. He amassed 5077, 2962, and 375 runs across the three formats, respectively. The 38-year-old finished with 51 fifties and 15 centuries in international cricket.
