PANJIM: Left-arm orthodox Goa spinner Shadab Jakati has bought curtains down to his cricketing career. Shadab, who played for Chennai Super Kings, now defunct Gujarat Lions and Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League, announced the decision on Twitter.
 “Just announced my retirement from all forms of cricket, Even though I have not been playing much over the last 1 year, it has been one of the harder things I have done in my life. Thank you BCCI and Goa Cricket with sincere gratitude for making me live my dream for the last 23 years,” Shadab tweeted on Friday.
 “At this juncture as I look back at my career I wish to thank with sincere gratitude my family, friends who have stood by me all the while. BCCI, GCA, senior cricketers, all my fellow teammates, support staff with whom I have spent moments which I shall cherish all my life,” he added.
