Ian Bell, the former England middle-order batsman, will retire from professional cricket at the end of this season.
Bell, 38, last played for England in 2015, but has been a regular for Warwickshire since then. He missed the whole of the 2019 season with injury, but has struggled for runs this year with a top score of 28 in all formats.
"It's true when they say you know when the time's right, and unfortunately, my time is now," Bell said ."While my hunger and enthusiasm for the sport that I love remain as strong as ever, my body simply can't keep up with the demands of the game to the standard of which I expect of myself."

Thank you.
