Mark Boucher ends South Africa career following injury

The three-time South African player of the year (1998, 2000 and 2006) finishes with a Test batting average of 30.30, having scored 5515 runs, and a one day international batting average of 28.57, from 4686 runs scored.

 Mark Boucher's terrible eye injury, caused when a bail struck his eye while standing up to the stumps, is a rare occurrence but it has happened before, most notably to Paul Downton in 1990, the incident ending the England and Middlesex's wicket-keeper's cricket career.


"It is with sadness, and in some pain, that I make this announcement," said Boucher in his statement. "Due to the severity of my eye injury, I will not be able to play International cricket again.

"I had prepared for this UK tour as well, if not better than I have prepared for any tour in my career. I had never anticipated announcing my retirement now, but circumstances have dictated differently.
