PROVIDENCE, April 6: New Zealand all-rounder Craig McMillan is already considering retiring from the sport as he feels the hectic cricket schedule has taken a toll on his body.

“It can be a rollercoaster at times,” the 30-year-old told reporters on Thursday.

“I'm not going to put a time on anything but there is a good chance this could be my last World Cup. I've been going since I was 20 so that's close to 10 years and it has been a long time. I would love to finish on a high at this World Cup with a very good side.”McMillan felt that the crammed international calendar has done the players no favours and could end up shortening careers of top class athletes.

“There is a lot more cricket played these days. It's something they (the cricket boards and ICC) need to look at because combined with the test tours it can get very tough,” he said.

“Maybe you will get guys just playing one form of the game. That might be a way to sustain yourself and stay involved for the last two or three years of your career, maybe forgoing one-dayers so they can play test cricket for the last two or three years.”—Reuters
