A distraught Rohit Sharma took "full responsibility" for Mumbai Indians' dismal IPL season after they lost their sixth consecutive match. Hitman said that he is at his wit's end to understand what course correction is needed to get them back on track. Skipper Rohit has himself endured a nightmare of a tournament, managing only 114 runs from six games and the highest score of 41.

"If I know what's going wrong, I'd correct it but it's not coming off. I'm trying to prepare myself in the way I prepare for every game, that is no different. It's not coming off."

Rohit said after MI lost to LSG by 18 runs on Saturday.

"It's important to keep looking forward. It's not the end of the world. We have come back before and we will try and come back again." the skipper tried to put up a brave face but the disappointment was all too palpable.

He was asked about the logic behind not starting with the team's No 1 bowler, Jasprit Bumrah, and the skipper defended his strategy.

"There's no particular reason to it.": Rohit Sharma on Bumrah

"There's no particular reason to it," Rohit replied when asked why he brought Bumrah in the fourth over.

"We try and put the team before the individual (Bumrah). They (LSG) bat quite deep and it is important to hold your key bowlers towards the back end. We always try and keep Bumrah for the back end and it didn't seem to work out," he reasoned. He had no option but to admit that bowling has left a lot to be desired.

"He bowled pretty well but the others just need to pull up their socks a little bit. Every game we play is an opportunity. We try and think what our best playing XI. Which is best suited for the particular conditions and particular team." Decoding the defeats will be key for Rohit.

"We lost six games now, we are trying to understand what our right combination is. But it all depends on the opposition that we play. When you lose games it is very easy to point out that changes are being made but we try and go with our best XI."

He praised opposite number and team India deputy KL Rahul for a fine batting show that has put Mumbai Indians almost out of the IPL.

"I think KL batted brilliantly, that is something missing from our team, wanted someone in our top four to bat as long as possible, which is not happening. Don't want to look too much into it. We haven't won a game yet but we need to keep our heads high," he added.

Kohli managed to land his hands on an ICC trophy for the first time in 2011. He was part of the 2011 World Cup squad that defeated Sri Lanka in the final at home. Two years later, he was on the podium yet again as India won the Champions Trophy in England. But then Kohli had to endure a decade’s wait to add the third title.

6 crickters who announced their retirements since last month | sportzpoint.com

The cricket world, known for its constant evolution, has seen a drastic shift in a month. Over the past month, six notable players have chosen to conclude their careers on the global stage.

From legendary batsmen to powerful all-rounders, these departures mark a significant moment in the history of cricket. These aren't just names; they are players who have shaped matches and won the hearts of millions.

Explore the list of 6 cricketers who announced their retirements since last month.

1. Rohit Sharma (Test retirement) | May 7, 2025

On May 7, 2025, Rohit Sharma announced his retirement from Test cricket, marking the end of his remarkable journey as a batsman, as well as India's captain in tests. His test career lasted for 12 years since his debut in 2013.

Sharma transformed himself into a brilliant test opener in the latter half of his career. One of his defining moments in Test cricket arrived in 2019 against South Africa, where he hammered a majestic 212 runs as an opener, showcasing his ability to wear down opposition attacks.

He is the fifth-most successful Test captain for India, leading to 12 Test victories.

Rohit Sharma's stats in tests:

Span Innings Runs Avg SR HS 50 100
2013-2024 116 4302 40.6 57.1 212 18 12

Following Rohit's retirement, India lost the era's most dominant force in test cricket. The announcement of Virat Kohli's test retirement on May 12, 2025, resonated globally, leaving everyone shocked and upset. 

Kohli approached the test format with a fierce competitive spirit and hunger for runs. His dedication and skill set in this format saw him notch 7 double centuries in his test career. He also became the most successful test captain of India during the 8 years (Dec 2014-Jan 2022) of his captaincy tenure, leading to 40 wins.

This decision of Kohli to step away from tests also brought the interests of Indian fans in tests in question. This retirement indeed marked the end of an era.

Virat Kohli's stats in tests:

Span Innings Runs Avg SR HS 50 100
2011-2025 210 9230 46.85 55.57 254* 3 30

3. Angelo Mathews (Test retirement) | May 23, 2025

Sri Lanka's enduring test pillar, Angelo Mathews, concluded his test career on May 23, 2025. He left behind a legacy of resilience and crucial performances as an all-rounder. 

Mathews possessed the ability to adapt his game and accelerate when required. His unbeaten 200 runs against Zimbabwe in 2020 stand out as one of his vital contributions. He also took a total of 33 wickets in tests.

He led Sri Lanka in 34 matches as a captain and won 13 among them.

Angelo Mathews' stats in tests:

Span Innings Runs Avg SR HS 50 100
2009-2025 210 8167 44.62 48.45 200* 45 16

4. Glenn Maxwell (ODIs Retirement) | June 2, 2025

Australia's one of the most captivating hitters and match-winners, Glenn Maxwell, announced retirement from ODIs on June 2, 2025. Known for his explosive strokeplay and ability to turn the game around, he had an amazing ODI career.

Maxwell's career has many moments to highlight, but nothing can match his astonishing 201* runs against Afghanistan in the 2023 Cricket World Cup. Coming back with a back injury, this innings was a masterclass in aggressive and controlled batting.

He snatched victory from the jaws of defeat, which goes down in the history of ODI cricket.

Glenn Maxwell's stats in ODIs:

Span Innings Runs Wickets Avg SR HS 50 100
2012-2025 136 3990

On June 2, 2025, Heinrich Klaasen announced his international retirement, which marked the end of a relatively short yet impactful career as a destructive batsman in white-ball cricket. 

Since his international debut for South Africa in 2018, he has been a hard-hitter of the ball and has become one of the most feared finishers in limited-overs formats. His phenomenal 174 runs off just 83 balls against Australia in an ODI in 2023 stands as a testament to his raw hitting power and ability.

Heinrich Klaasen's international stats (2018-2025)

Format Innings Runs Avg SR HS 50 100
T20Is 53 1000 23.25 141.84 81 5 0
ODIs 56 2141 43.69 117.05 174 11 4
Tests 8 104 13.00 45.21 35 0 0

The West Indies batter, Nicholas Pooran, announced his international retirement on June 10, 2025, at the age of just 29. This marked one of the earliest retirements for a high-profile West Indies player.

As a left-hander wicket-keeper batsman, Pooran quickly established himself as an electrifying hitter in white-ball cricket. He brought an aggressive approach to the crease, with the potential to turn the game in his favour.

He has done exceptionally well in his short-lived international career. His 98 runs off 53 balls against Afghanistan in the 2024 T20 World Cup perfectly tell the story of his talent.

Nicholas Pooran's international stats (2016-2025):

Format Innings Runs Avg SR HS 50 100
T20Is 97 2275 26.14 136.39 98 13 0
ODIs 58 1983 39.66 99.15 118 11 3
