“This is the most difficult decision I ever made, to say goodbye to my dream,” he tweeted.

Tyagi played 41 First-Class matches from which he picked 109 wickets. He also featured in 23 List A matches (31 wickets).

“I have achieved what is every player’s dream to represent the country and wearing the Indian flag is a dream I lived,” he said.

“I want to thank MS Dhoni under whom I played my first ODI. I want to thank my role models Mohammad Kaif, RP Singh and Suresh Raina. It is very difficult to do this but to move ahead we must let go.” PTI
