Sciver-Brunt retires from international cricket

NEW DELHI, May 6: Katherine Sciver-Brunt retired from international cricket on Friday after a superb 19-year career in which she took more wickets than any other woman for England.
Sciver-Brunt, who made her international debut in 2004, amassed 335 wickets in 267 appearances for England. The fast bowler helped England's women to three Ashes series victories and three World Cup wins, two coming in ODIs and one in T20s. Only India's Jhulan Goswami (355) has more dismissals than Sciver-Brunt in all women's international formats. Sciver-Brunt, 37, quit playing Tests last year and also stepped away from ODIs.
She has now elected to walk away from England altogether, despite contemplating staying on for the T20 portion of this summer's multi-format Ashes series.
"Well here I am, 19 years later, at the end of my international journey," she said. "I thought I'd never be able to reach this decision but I have and it's been the hardest one of my life. "I never had any dreams or aspirations to do what I've done, I only ever wished to make my family proud of me. And what I've achieved has gone way beyond that." Sciver-Brunt's last England appearance came in the T20 WC semi-final defeat against hosts South Africa.
