Australia vice-captain Rachael Haynes has announced her retirement from international cricket, making it clear that the upcoming eighth edition of the Women`s Big Bash League will be her last outing. Haynes confirmed she has also played her last domestic match for New South Wales, while WBBL 08 will be her last for the Sydney Thunder. "Not only one of the greatest players of her generation, @RachaelHaynes has been an outstanding contributor to the culture of our team. Congrats on an incredible career, Rach. We`ll miss you," said the official handle of the Australian Women`s Cricket Team.
In a career spanning more than a decade, Haynes played 84 Twenty20 Internationals, 77 One-Day Internationals and six Tests. A top-order batter, Haynes scored nearly 3,818 international runs across all three formats, including 98 on her Test debut against England in 2009, two ODI centuries and 19 half-centuries. The left-hander also claimed 13 wickets and is also a good fielder. Haynes first captained Australia during her second stint in the side, leading the team at the 2017 ICC Women`s World Cup with Meg Lanning battling a shoulder issue, said a report in cricket.com.au.
