Netherlands star Batter Stephan Myburgh who is third highest run-getter in the T20I Cricket announced his retirement from international cricket on Monday. He made his decision public via his Instagram account on Monday, following his side’s historic win against South Africa in order to spend more time with his close ones.
“Hanging up the boots….To God be the glory!!! Blessed to have made my first-class debut 17 seasons ago and my international debut 12 seasons ago. Never in my dreams would I have imagined finishing my career at the World Cup with a win against South Africa. My blood will always be green. As much as a sportsman always want to win I had a tear for my beloved country. I am thankful for @kncbcricket and the Netherlands that’s now my home and have too many people to thank for my career. Jesus, @tineke.myburgh, friends and family, sponsors and all the supporters out there I can only say thanks!!! #GodIsGood #Blessed can’t wait to see my girls (sic),” he wrote in a post on Instagram on Monday.
