One of the most accomplished names in T20 cricket, Kieron Pollard, on Tuesday called time on his Indian Premier League playing career after 13 seasons with league giants Mumbai Indians.
The 35-year-old wanted to carry on playing for a few more years but decided to retire from IPL after discussion with the five-time champions.
Pollard, who has 3,412 IPL runs in 189 matches, had made his MI debut back in 2010. However, his strong association with the franchise remains as he will be the team’s new batting coach.
Delhi Capitals have released Mandeep Singh, K.S. Bharat, New Zealand’s Tim Seifert and Andhra batter Ashwin Hebbar, reported ESPN Cricinfo. They had also traded Shardul Thakur to KKR in return for Aman Khan.
Capitals had finished fifth in IPL 2022. Bharat, a wicketkeeper-batter, played only twice for the Capitals as skipper Rishabh Pant remained their number one wicketkeeeping choice. Seifert, too, played only two games while Mandeep played three. Hebbar, who was the second highest run-getter in recent Andhra Premier League, never got a game.
