Martin Guptill Retires Joins PSL 10 Draft
“As a young kid it was always my dream to play for New Zealand and I feel incredibly lucky and proud to have played 367 games for my country,” Martin Guptill who scored over 13,000 runs across international formats said in a statement to New Zealand Cricket (NZC).
“I will forever cherish the memories made wearing the silver fern alongside a great group of guys. I want to say a huge thanks to all my team-mates and coaching staff over the years, in particular Mark O’Donnell who has coached me since the Under-19 level and has been a source of ongoing support and wisdom over my career.
“Finally, I’d like to thank all the cricket fans, here in NZ and around the world for all their support throughout the years.”
Martin Guptill has retired as New Zealand’s fifth-highest run scorer with 13,463 runs across formats, behind only Kane Williamson, Brendon McCullum, Stephen Fleming, and Ross Taylor.
