Former England bowler Chris Tremlett has announced his retirement from all forms of cricket.
The 33-year-old took 50 wickets in 12 Test matches for his country between 2007 and 2013.
Tremlett, who played for Hampshire and Surrey during his county career, was part of England's Ashes-winning squad in Australia in 2011.
"After 16 enjoyable years in a game that has given me so much I feel that now is the right moment to call time on my playing career," he said in a statement.
"I have been extremely fortunate to have enjoyed such a fantastic and memorable career and lucky enough to play with and against some of the best players in the world.
"Wearing the Three Lions was the pinnacle and I enjoyed every minute of the challenge, experience and ultimately the success that the team had whilst playing for England.
"Unfortunately injury has hampered me throughout my career and now plays the leading role in my decision to retire. My body, and back in particular, can no longer withstand the vigour of performing at the level required to play professional cricket and after taking specialist advice this latest injury means that I will not be able to carry on."
Tremlett also took 15 wickets in 15 appearances for England at one-day international level.
