LONDON, (Reuters) – Australian opening batsman Chris Rogers confirmed yesterday that he will retire from test cricket at the end of the current Ashes series in England.
Rogers had already indicated that the series would be his last and the 37-year-old told reporters in London he had no reason to change his mind.
“I think it is time, I have had an amazing couple of years playing for Australia and enjoyed it and been part of some pretty special things but everything comes to an end and I have been pretty lucky,” he told reporters at Australia’s hotel in London.
“You are never 100 per cent sure but I felt like this was the last one, there’s been a few things, particularly the head issues lately, I am quite happy to call it a day.
