Allrounder Rishi Dhawan has announced his retirement from Indian limited-overs cricket. Dhawan's announcement comes after the final day of the Vijay Hazare Trophy's group stage phase with Himachal Pradesh not making it to the next stage.

However, Dhawan's retirement announcement on his social media handle has specifically mentioned limited overs cricket, which suggests he will be available to play for Himachal in the remainder of the Ranji season.

The 34-year-old has represented India four times at the international level, with all four outings coming in the year 2016. He has also been a part of Mumbai Indians, Punjab Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL previously but went unsold in the recent auctions.

"It's with a heavy heart, even though I have no regrets, that I'd like to announce my retirement from Indian cricket (Limited over). It's a sport that has defined my life for the past 20 years. This game has given me immeasurable joy and countless memories that would always stay very close to my heart," Dhawan said in his statement.

"From humble beginnings to representing my nation on the grandest stages, it has been a privilege beyond measure. Cricket has been my passion, and my reason for waking up every morning. I would like to thank all of my coaches, mentors, teammates, and support staff for the valuable contributions you have made to shaping me into the person I am today.

"As I embark on this transitional chapter in my life, I am filled with excitement and anticipation. There are countless challenges to conquer, new dreams to pursue, and new opportunities to embrace. I am confident that the skills and values instilled in me by cricket will guide me in this next phase."
