Kedar Jadhav announces his retirement from all formats of cricket
On Monday, June 3, the all-rounder of the Indian cricket team, Kedar Jadhav, announced his retirement from all forms of cricket. The batter of the Mahabharata took to social media to share a post that was quite similar to MS Dhoni's retirement note on Instagram. Jadhav, who shares a cordial relationship with Dhoni, also shared a slideshow of photos from his career with a Kishore Kumar song playing in the background.
In the post confirming his retirement, Kedar Jadhav said, "Thank you all for your love and support throughout my career from 1500 hrs. Consider me retired from all forms of cricket.”
The announcement was almost the same as MS Dhoni's retirement note. On August 15, 2020, Dhoni shocked his fans by announcing his retirement with a two-line statement on his Instagram profile, a year after he played his last international game for India at the 2019 World Cup in England.
Kedar Jadhav played 73 ODIs and 9 T20is for India between 2014 and 2020. The 39-year-old flourished under MS Dhoni’s captaincy, providing the team with handy off-spin. Jadhav played in the 2019 World Cup and was part of the team that reached the semi-final.
