Will Pucovski, the opener for Australia, declared at the age of 27 that he was retiring from international cricket as well as all other forms of cricket because of a medical problem called concussions. In his brief career, he has experienced numerous concussions. In his four years as an international player, the opening has only participated in one match. His career was suffering as a result of his medical condition. So he made the decision to stop it.
After being struck by pacer Riley Meredith during a Sheffield Shield match, Will Pucovski suffered a concussion that kept him out of the game for some time. In 2021, he only appeared in one Test match for Australia, against India in Sydney. The erstwhile rising star opener told his supporters that he will not be participating in any level of cricket. Notably, the Victoria native began playing cricket in 2017 and was an outstanding player for Victoria’s domestic team.
“I wish I were entering under different circumstances. I will no longer be playing cricket. To put it simply, this year has been quite challenging. In an interview with SEN Radio, Will Pucovski stated, “I think it would take a few hours to walk you through the entire process, but the main takeaway is that I will not be playing cricket at any level again.”
For Will Pucovski, a new chapter begins.
The 27-year-old is coaching cricket for the Victorian Premier team, Melbourne, in his second stint in the role. His joining has been announced by the team. In addition, he joined Channel Seven as a commentator.
The player, who scored 2,350 runs at an average of 51.4 in 36 games, will be missed by Australian cricket. In 2019, he played for Victoria, which won the Sheffield Shield. The athlete will undoubtedly have fond memories of his cricketing career.
