Finn represented England in 126 matches across all formats, taking 254 wickets at an average of 29.05.


London: Former England pacer Steven Finn has announced his retirement from all forms of cricket, his county side Sussex confirmed on Monday.
Steven Finn sustained a knee injury that sidelined him for the majority of 2023 and forced him to end his 18-year-long career.
Finn represented England in 126 matches across all formats, taking 254 wickets at an average of 29.05.
“I retire with some amazing memories with England, Middlesex and Sussex, shared with fantastic people. Those will live with me forever,” read Finn’s statement.
“Thank you to all the people who have followed and supported my career, especially my parents who allowed me to chase my dream when I was a youngster.
“Cricket has given me a lot and I hope to give back to the game in some capacity in the future. But, for now, I’ll enjoy watching on without wondering whether my body will be able to make it through another day’s cricket. Thank you.”
“Today I am retiring from all forms of cricket with immediate effect. “I have been fighting a battle with my body for the last 12 months and have admitted defeat to it.
“To have played 125 games for England, including 36 Tests, far surpassed what I dreamed of. I want to thank Sussex Cricket for their support over the last 12 months especially and for welcoming me wholeheartedly into the club at the beginning of last season.
“It really is a great place to play cricket and I’m sorry that I wasn’t able to play more of a part on the field since joining the club.”
It is worth mentioning here that Steven Finn is the only England bowler to take an ODI World Cup hat-trick. He achieved the feat in the 2015 World Cup fixture against arch-rivals Australia.
