Former Delhi keeper Punit Bisht announces retirement from all forms of domestic cricket

New Delhi, Aug 2 (PTI) Former Delhi wicketkeeper Punit Bisht called time on his career after 17 years of competitive cricket in which he played 272 matches across three formats.

The 37-year-old, who was a part of Delhi’s last Ranji Trophy winning team in the 2007-08 season, also played for Jammu and Kashmir and Meghalaya as a professional.

In 103 First-Class games, he scored 5231 runs at an average of over 38 which included 10 hundreds and an individual best of 343. He also had 299 catches and 19 stumping to his credit.

In 103 List A games, he had 2924 runs with 6 hundreds and 17 fifties and a healthy average of nearly 39.

“I thought this is the best time to call it quits from competitive cricket. I have played 100-plus games across both First-Class and List A format and nearly 275 (272) competitive games if you take Mushtaq Ali T20 into account. There is nothing more to achieve as a player and I believe this is the right time to bid adieu,” Bisht told
