David Willey retired from international cricket, England had already released him from the central contract

England's left-arm fast bowler David Willey has announced on social media that he will retire from international cricket after the World Cup being played in India. 33-year-old David Willey is a dangerous fast bowler. However, he has not been able to do anything special for his team in the mega-event being played in India.

It is being told that Willey's decision to retire comes after the ECB's decision not to offer him a central contract for the 2023-24 cycle. Willey has taken five wickets in his three matches in the World Cup. Which includes three wickets (KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, and Suryakumar Yadav) and 42 runs while batting lower order in the match against India.

Willey wrote in his post on social media, "I never wanted this day to come. I have only dreamed of playing cricket for England since childhood. I have taken this decision after much consideration and with great regret." "I have decided that the time has come to retire from all forms of international cricket. I will not play international cricket after the World Cup."
