Varun Aaron To Retire From Red-ball Cricket After Ranji Trophy Fixture Against Rajasthan
Varun Aaron: Former India pace bowler Varun Aaron will bid farewell to red-ball cricket in the ongoing Ranji Trophy match between Jharkhand and Rajasthan but will continue to play white-ball cricket for the time being.
Aaron's journey in red-ball cricket began in 2008 when he made his first-class debut for Jharkhand in a Ranji Trophy league match against Jammu and Kashmir. His raw pace and talent quickly propelled him onto the international stage, making his debut for India in an ODI against England at the Wankhede Stadium in 2011. A month later, he made his Test debut too, against West Indies at the same venue.
"I have been playing red-ball cricket since 2008. Since I bowled fast, I picked up several injuries. I understand now that my body won't allow me to continue bowling fast in red-ball cricket, so I have decided to quit,” Aaron said to ESPNcricinfo.
