Tendulkar retires from IPL

Mumbai Indians batsman Sachin Tendulkar announced his retirement from IPL cricket after winning their first IPL title.

He played his last IPL in a league match against Sunrisers Hyderabad.


"This is my last IPL," Tendulkar announced casually during an interview with Harsha Bhogle on the ground after the win. "This has been a fantastic season. I thought our third IPL season was the best before this.

"I think this is the right time to stop playing the IPL. I am 40. Got to accept it. I had decided this was my last season."

In his 78 matches of IPL career, Tendulkar scored 2334 runs that includes one century and 13 half-centuries.
