Craig Miles retires from professional cricket
Craig Miles, who was part of the Warwickshire County Cricket Club team that won the 2021 County Championship, has announced his retirement from professional cricket.
2026-10-02T14:05+01:00
Miles spent six years with the Bears from 2019 before returning to Gloucestershire ahead of the 2025 season, the Club where he made his First Class debut aged just 16.
His finest hour came in 2021, when he helped the Bears to the double, when they won the County Championship and the Bob Willis Trophy. In the Bob Willis Trophy final at Lord's, he played a key role, taking 5-28 as Lancashire were bowled out for 78.
Miles calls time on his career having played more than 200 games that saw him take over 500 wickets.
Announced on Gloucestershire’s website, Miles, 32, has decided to put his mental wellbeing first and has written an open letter to supporters explaining his decision. You can read his open letter by clicking this link.
Warwickshire would like to congratulate Craig on an outstanding career, and wish him every success for the future. Once a Bear. Always a Bear.
