The 31-year-old cited that her concerns over the team culture has brought her to make this decision to retire. The all-rounder star indicated in her statement addressed to Cricket Wrest Indies that the current environment in the team was non-conductive to her ability to thrive and regain her passion. The news about retirement has hit everyone by surprise. The Caribbean side has waited more than a week to send her well wishes and Walsh paid tribute to the second-highest run-scorer for the West Indie in both women's ODIs and the T20I statement on Monday.
