Retirements Thread - Imad Wasim

[Manish.]

Wait, all cricket meaning including domestic/franchise T20s as well?

RCB came up with a farewell post.

 

[asprin]

I assume so, he wasn't playing anything else.

Oh yes, can't believe I didn't notice that he wasn't playing any international cricket.

End of an era! I still feel SA missed a trick y not somehow luring him back for the CWC 2019 and WT20 2021.

The finest ABD ever was, was in CWC 2015- thoroughly deserved to get his hands on the trophy. Really unfortunate. For me, he set the CWC on fire then. Can never forget that magical knock versus the Windies in Sydney. What a player! Take a bow ABD! You shall be sorely missed.

Coincidentally @Life Warrior also scored 162 in the Kumar Vishal Trophy with his player likeness being AB de Villiers.

I am sure @LiveLoveABD (the greatest fan of AB on here) must be feeling all the nostalgia (with some relief also, now that ABD doesn't have to live through RCB's "inability to rise above the mediocrity" )

Go well ABD!! I was wishing he would be released and CSK got him for one year atleast, but well he has his emotional connect with RCB and wants to leave as an RCB player.... Always a legend!!!

Wishful thinking.

Watching AB play from 2008 to 2015 in his prime was incredible. Some of the innings he played during the 2015 WC were magical.

 

[NILAYSHAH60]

I never realised the potential of AB de Villiers until I saw him closely in 2015. Until then it was all Virat Kohli for me.

 

[Na Maloom Afraad]

Never forget. #ThankYouAB

AB's ODI and T20 batting is the most praised skill, but I loved seeing him bat in tests. His 106 at Perth in that massive run chase (second highest currently) against a 2008 Aussie lineup was something to remember. The 270 odd against Pakistan in Dubai and more importantly his 33 not out against Aussies to play for a draw with Faf!

Farewell ABD! You are and will always remain a true legend!

I am going to miss ABD, Really wished he played for South Africa in the T20 world cup and then retire after the world cup.
I will never forgot that innings when he 149 off just 44 and broke the record for the fastest hundred in ODI, it's going to be tough for anyone to beat that.
