Harare: Zimbabwean batsman Grant Flower has retired from cricket for the second time to focus on his job as the country's batting coach said on Tuesday.
"I have drawn the line. There's enough talent coming through and I don't want to hold anyone back," said Flower, 40, who briefly rejoined the international side to play two one-day internationals against South Africa last year.
"I've had a good run and I've enjoyed it, but there is a transition from player to coach, and I think it's time to take it," he added.
Flower, who initially retired from international cricket in 2004, featured in Zimbabwe's first Test side match against Pakistan in 1992 and hit a career-best 201 not out to win the match by an innings.
He played in 67 Tests and 221 one-day internationals.
Flower became the first Zimbabwean to score a century in both innings of a Test match, scoring against New Zealand in 1997.
He spent most of his international career playing alongside his brother and wicketkeeper Andy, who since retiring in 2006, has forged a successful career in coaching in England.
