Michael Lumb has retired with immediate effect

Nottinghamshire have confirmed former England batsman Michael Lumb has retired with immediate effect due to an ankle injury.

So sad that the illustrious career of the left handed cricketer and right hand medium pace bowler has come to an unexpected end, sort of an anti-climax. I think he had signed a 3 year contract, or was it about to end? But if should be useful in the game in another capacity.
