Heinrich Klaasen announced his retirement from all forms of cricket on Monday, June 2, admitting that it was a "difficult decision" but has made "peace with" it. Klaasen, who wasn't part of the 20-member contracted list announced by Cricket South Africa (CSA) in April, had decided not to renew his contract and hence, there were signs, especially with the likes of David Miller and Rassie van der Dussen signing hybrid ones. Klaasen said that he wanted to prioritise his family and the decision was in the best interest of him and his family's future. source https://www.indiatvnews.com/sports/cricket/heinrich-klaasen-announces-international-retirement-from-all-formats-at-33-2025-06-02-992940

Jewel Andrew became the youngest opener for the West Indies in the ODIs as well as white-ball cricket after the 18-year-old was pushed to the top of the order in the absence of veteran Evin Lewis, due to an injury against England in the second game of the three-match series in Cardiff on Sunday, June 1. Andrew, who was playing just his third ODI, came out to open for the West Indies alongside Brandon King after England chose to bowl and at 18 years and 176 days, broke Xavier Marshall's record of being the youngest white-ball opener for the Men in Maroon. source https://www.indiatvnews.com/sports/cricket/jewel-andrew-creates-white-ball-cricket-history-for-west-indies-after-teenager-opens-innings-against-england-2025-06-01-992833

After eight years, Karun Nair returned to India’s scheme of things. After scoring a triple century against England in 2017, Karun was dropped from the playing XI and hasn’t been considered for selection again. In the last few years, he worked hard in the domestic circuit, scoring plenty of runs and that forced the selectors to pick him for the upcoming five-match Test series against England. source https://www.indiatvnews.com/sports/cricket/karun-nair-hands-selectors-casual-reminder-with-scorching-double-ton-in-canterbury-2025-05-31-992707
