Meg Lanning,I Don Like the Word Retirement

Meg Lanning, a former captain of Australia, is content to be in her "quiet" space and pursue her passion for franchise-based cricket worldwide, including the Women's Premier League, even though she dislikes the word "retirement". In November of last year, Lanning—who has amassed 3405 runs in 132 T20I matches—announced her retirement from international cricket. Last year, she capably guided the Delhi Capitals in the first-ever WPL, finishing as the competition's top scorer with 345 runs from nine games. In the championship match, the Mumbai Indians defeated the Capitals by a seven-wicket margin.
The 31-year-old batter stated in a DC press release, "I don't like the word retirement, but it's been nice to be a little bit quiet, spend time at home, and play some cricket here and there."
"I still love playing, and I've been looking forward to the WPL, so really excited and hopefully can help Delhi win the title this year." Lanning, who joined the team over the weekend and had her first training session with DC in Bengaluru, talked highly of the first WPL season and expressed her hope that the next one would be even better.
"Getting outside and taking a little romp around is pleasant. Everyone appears to be in excellent shape. Everyone has made a lot of progress, and I'm really looking forward to what we can create this year," she remarked.That was a great time last year. I'm excited to bat first this year again with Shafali (Varma), as it was a lot of fun last time.We all got along well as a group, I believe. We seemed to be able to come together as a group, which made it easy and enjoyable to hang out both on and off the field. This year will probably be pretty much the same." DC will play the reigning champions in the opening game of the 2024 WPL season.
