    Former Black Cap Colin Munro has retired from internationals, after being left out of a second Twenty-20 World Cup in a row

    Former Black Cap Colin Munro has retired from internationals, after being left out of a second Twenty-20 World Cup in a row


    Munro says the selectors sounded him out about the upcoming T20 World Cup - but then didn't pick him, again.

    The 37-year-old played 123 matches in different formats for New Zealand between 2012 and 2020... he will continue as a T-20 gun for hire.



    Silver Ferns shooter Grace Nweke has been confirmed to be out of action for up to six weeks.

    Nweke has reinjured the same knee that she hurt in last year's Netball World Cup... forcing her out of the tournament before the knockout stages.



    And Olympic rowing champion Emma Twigg has revealed the Paris Games will almost certainly mark her final campaign.
