New Zealand's left-arm fast bowler Trent Boult announced his retirement from international cricket following New Zealand's final Group C match against Papua New Guinea at the 2024 T20 ICC Cricket World Cup, held at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba.
Trent Boult had an illustrious 13-year international career, making his debut in 2011 and representing New Zealand in all formats of the game.
He played in all three format finals: the 2021 ICC World Test Championship final, the 2019 ICC ODI World Cup final, and the 2021 T20 World Cup final.
In his final match, New Zealand, already eliminated from the tournament, dismissed Papua New Guinea for 78 runs. Boult took two wickets for 14 runs, and his teammate Lockie Ferguson achieved a remarkable feat of taking three wickets without conceding a single run in his four allotted overs.
