To be honest, I’m tired. This is a tough decision but I would love to retire while still playing decent cricket. And after the fantastic series against Australia and India, now I feel right time to step down”.
“I would always be grateful to my teammates, the coaches and Cricket South Africa for their support”, stated right hand batsman on his Twitter account.
