Mumbai, June 20: Former India pacer Javagal Srinath has said he retired early because his knees were becoming an issue and he also wanted then new pacers Zaheer Khan and Ashish Nehra to blossom in tandem.

"My hands and knees had gone down. At that time, Zaheer and Ashish were there. When I used to play, only one of them used to get a chance," Srinath said during Star Sports 1 Kannada's new show 'Diggajara Danthakathe' which sees Vijay Bharadwaj engage in conversation with legends of Karnataka cricket.
