Wriddhiman Saha international cricket career in numbers

Wriddhiman Saha retired from all forms of cricket on February 1, 2025.

Indian wicket-keeper batsman Wriddhiman Saha played his last representative cricket match on February 1, 2025. Last year, Saha had confirmed that the ongoing domestic season would be his last and he would bid adieu to international, domestic, cricket and the IPL.

Saha started his domestic career in 2007, making his First Class and List A debuts against Hyderabad and Assam, respectively.
