There is a tough fight for every position in the Indian cricket team. Many players dream of playing for Team India and their careers come to a halt while waiting. At the same time, some players play for Team India but are not successful in securing a place. Something similar happened with wicketkeeper batsman Wriddhiman Saha, who has now retired from international cricket. Saha was waiting for a long time to return to Team India, but due to not returning for years, he suddenly announced his retirement.
Last match played in 2021
These days, Team India is trying to erase the sorrow of the 3-0 defeat in the Test series against New Zealand. Last time when the Kiwi team toured India, Team India had crushed this team badly. In 2021, India had defeated New Zealand by a huge margin of 372 runs at Wankhede. Wriddhiman Saha was also a part of this match. He suddenly announced his retirement in the middle of Ranji Trophy.
Posted on social media
Wriddhiman Saha has posted a post on social media platform X. In which he wrote, 'After a memorable journey in cricket, this season will be my last season. I am honored to have got the opportunity to represent Bengal by playing in the Ranji Trophy before I retire. Make this season memorable!'

How was your career?
Wriddhiman Saha has contributed to Team India in Test and ODI. He scored 1353 runs in 40 tests with 6 half-centuries and 3 centuries. At the same time, he has only 41 runs in his name in 5 innings of 9 ODIs. Saha is often seen playing for Gujarat in IPL. But the team has not retained him for IPL 2025. It will be interesting to see whether any team shows interest in him in the auction or not.
