Rumeli Dhar calls it a day

-

India women’s team all-rounder

Rumeli Dhar, 38, has bowed out of all formats of cricket.

Rumeli’s India career began in 2003, and she went on to play four Tests, 7■ ODIS and 1■ T20IS. She was a mediumpace­r and a handy top-order batter. She was part of the Indian team which reached the final of the World Cup in 2005.

“Each match in this prolonged career taught me a lesson that will help in my second innings. Like all journeys, mine will end as a cricketer today, but I promise to be associated with the sport and help nurture young talents in the country, giving back to the game in every way possible,” she wrote on Instagram.
