New Delhi. Former West Indies captain and current head coach Darren Sammy has expressed deep concern over Nicholas Puran’s sudden retirement from international cricket. Sammy believes that this incident highlights a major challenge to West Indies cricket. Many star players have announced retirement in the last few weeks. The newest name in this is that of West Indies explosive batsman Nicholas Puran. Nicholas Puran surprised everyone except international cricket at the age of just 29 years. West Indies head coach Daren Sammy believes that Nicholas Puran’s sudden retirement from international cricket underlines the increasing challenge of keeping players motivated to represent their national teams and warned that more players can do so.

Darren Sammy said that he started planning without Puran after the earlier conversation with this cricketer and his agent. Sammy said, ‘I ideally I would like to keep such talent in the team. But I cannot control anyone’s career. I greeted him, he greeted the team. Now an attempt is being made to move forward on the strategy without Nicholas Puran. The World Cup is coming, I respect the fact that he told us long ago so that we had more time to plan without him.
Sammy, who won the West Indies title in the T20 World Cup twice in 2012 and 2016, pointed out a widespread tendency to retire in modern cricket and warned that more players could follow Puran’s path. Sammy said, ‘I am sure that more players will move in that direction. Now T20 cricket is like this and being especially connected with the West Indies, we will not be surprised to inspire our players to play on the summit with the challenges faced by us.
‘This is out of our control’
Sammy said, ‘You have seen that everyone is talking about Henrik Klassen, Quinton Dickock, these players. Those who have retired. It is out of our control.
