New Zealand pacer Hamish Bennett has announced that the 2021/22 season will be the last of his 17-year old career. The 35-year old has represented the New Zealand U-19 side, the senior men's team, and domestic teams Wellington and Canterbury. "When I started out as a young kid bowling in the nets in Timaru, I never dreamed I would have gone on to enjoy the career that I've had. From Old Boys Timaru Cricket Club who got me involved in cricket at the start, Timaru Boys' High School, South Canterbury Cricket, Canterbury Cricket, Cricket Wellington, and New Zealand Cricket, as well as all the other great clubs I've played for down the years, they've all played a role in helping me achieve my cricket dream," said Bennett as per an official release.
