‘I have no regrets, I am always happy… retired or otherwise’

TIL Desk Sports/ Having endured much pain in his 18-year-long injury-littered yet successful career, Ashish Nehra says his body will be at peace as he bid adieu to international career in New Delhi on Wednesday.

“I will miss all this. That’s what you train for. One thing which will definitely be at peace will be my body. I said earlier that I can go a couple more years, but there can’t be a better time to walk away,” Nehra said after his swansong game in international cricket.

Nehra was asked by skipper Virat Kohli to bowl the last over the first T20 International against New Zealand, which India won by 53 runs. “I must be the one bowler who sent down the last over most number of times for India. But those times were different. There was no pressure today.”
