Sarah Taylor:
England’s wicket-keeper batwoman Sarah Taylor retired from international cricket because she was battling with anxiety. She surprised her fans with the decision but the veteran said that retiring was a tough choice for her but it was good for her mental health.
“This has been a tough decision but I know it’s the right one, for me and for my health moving forward. I am extremely proud of my career. I leave with my head held high and with excitement for what my future holds and what my next chapter brings.”
Taylor played a key role in England’s most memorable victories which included the World T20 win in 2009, and the 50-over World Cup win in 2017. Positioned behind the stumps, she has 232 dismissals in her name, the most in women’s cricket so far.
