Grant Elliott announces ODI retirement

Grant Elliott, the New Zealand allrounder who played a key role in Brendon McCullum’s side’s journey to the final of the 2015 World Cup, announced his One-Day International (ODI) retirement. The 37-year-old, who played his 83rd and last ODI against Australia in Hamilton on February 6, finished with 1976 runs at an average of 34.06 and 39 wickets to his name.

“I’ve played my last one-day game, but there are three formats.” he told Newshubafter New Zealand arrived in Auckland on March 31. “I’m going to reassess, let the dust settle. As long as I’m still enjoying my cricket, I haven’t really made a call on anything yet. I haven’t seen my Test clothing for a number of years. Twenty20 cricket I’m enjoying, and the body feels good.”
