“I think it’s a forced retirement” :Ross Taylor shocking claim on Neil Wagner’s sudden exit.

The retirement of New Zealand cricket stalwart Neil Wagner has sparked speculation and raised eyebrows, particularly with recent comments from legendary player Ross Taylor. Taylor has stirred the cricketing world by suggesting that Wagner’s retirement may not have been entirely voluntary, hinting at potential issues within the New Zealand cricket board.

Wagner bid an emotional farewell to the game after being left out of the first match against Australia. His heartfelt thanks to New Zealand cricket and his fans contrasted sharply with Taylor’s insinuation of a forced retirement. Taylor, himself retired for two years now, empathizes with Wagner’s situation, fueling the speculation further.

Taylor said “I think it all makes sense a little bit now. There’s no sugarcoating it: I think it’s a forced retirement. If you listen to Wagner’s press conference, he was retiring, but it was after this last Test match. So he did make himself available, And to see that he isn’t selected … I think I do like and you do need to plan for the future, but a one-off Test against Australia in a must-win situation, I wouldn’t be looking much further than Neil Wagner. And I’m sure the Australian batters are sleeping easy that he’s not in the side.”

As attention turned to Taylor during a recent interview, his remarks about the nature of Wagner’s retirement only intensified the scrutiny surrounding the situation.
