Best XI from the players who retired in 2018
These players have garnered a number of laurels over the course of their illustrious career.
8. Praveen Kumar (India)
Another Indian bowler who put curtains on his career in 2018 is Praveen Kumar. All along his career, the medium-pace bowler from Meerut made swing his quintessential ability as he didn’t generate a lot of speed off the pitch. Having relied on pure air movement, Kumar succeeded in windy conditions. His best performance came in the CB Trophy 2008 in Australia where he scalped ten wickets in four matches.
He played his final international game in March 2012. It was a T20I game against South Africa in Johannesburg. He didn’t have an impressive end to his international career as he leaked 22 runs in two overs. He also failed to grab wickets in his final international game.
The medium-fast bowler played 6 Tests, 68 ODI, and 10 T20Is for India. In his career, Kumar scalped 27 Test wickets, 77 ODI wickets, and 8 T20I wickets. He also has an ODI fifty to his name. Hence, with impressive swinging abilities and decent numbers in his arsenal, Kumar will be a smart addition to this XI.
