SRH batter Heinrich Klaasen has retired from international cricket on Monday at the age of 33. "It is a sad day for me as I announce that I have decided to step away from international cricket. It took me a long time to decide what's best for me and my family for the future. It was truly a very difficult decision but also one that I have absolute peace with," said Klaasen. Kavya Maran's SRH retained Heinrich Klaasen for Rs 23 crore ahead of IPL 2025 mega auction last year. Heinrich Klaasen was highest run-scorer for SRH in IPL 2025 season with 487 runs in 14 matches at a strike-rate of over 172.

"My road to wearing the Proteas shirt was different than most and there were certain coaches in my career that kept believing in me - to them I will always be grateful. To have played with the Proteas badge on my chest was and will always be the biggest honour in my career. I look forward to spending more time with my family as this decision will allow me to do so. I will always be a big Proteas supporter and would like to thank everyone that supported me and my teammates during my career," Klaasen wrote in his retirement statement.

Shubman Gill's captaincy slammed after GT's flop show against Mumbai Indians: ‘Can't expect to win a championship…'
Former Indian cricketer Robin Uthappa has criticised the Gujarat Titans' strategy during Friday's match against the Mumbai Indians. Notably, GT had secured a place in the IPL 2025 Playoffs by finishing third in the IPL Points Table, but were eliminated from the tournament on 30 May after losing by 20 runs to MI in the Eliminator clash. After the match, Uthappa criticised GT's strategy, calling it 'reactive' rather than 'proactive', and noted that captain Shubman Gill used Prasidh Krishna in the powerplay, despite the bowler's past success in the middle overs. Uthappa also mentioned the sloppy fielding by the GT players, which only made matters worse for their team. Speaking to JioHotstar after the match, Uthappa said, 'GT's strategy was more reactive than proactive. Using Prasidh in the powerplay – despite his success in middle overs – was a misstep. His first over was expensive, and they failed to course-correct,' 'The 26-run and 22-run overs proved costly. On top of that, their fielding let them down. You can't drop that many catches and expect to win a championship,' the former cricketer added. Notably, GT players had a poor time on the field, allowing the Mumbai Indians batters several chances, which they seized with both hands to post a total of 228 runs in 20 overs. In reply, GT lost Shubman Gill's wicket early on, but Sai Sudharsan led a comeback, first with Kusal Mendis (20 off 10 balls) and then with Washington Sundar (48 off 24 balls), to bring GT back into the match.

However, after Sudarshan and Sundar were dismissed, GT struggled to score 36 runs in the final two overs and eventually lost the match by 20 runs. Notably, Gill was also recently named the Indian Test captain and will soon resume national duties as he will lead the Indian side during five match Test series in England.
