Jonathan Trott (Image Credit- Twitter) 5 Cricketers who left cricket due to mental stress: With the increasing demands of international cricket over the years, mental health risks have also followed suit. Cricket is fast becoming famous all over the world and every day we get to see the start of tournaments and leagues one after the other. IPL is dominant all over the world and seeing this, new leagues have been started in many countries. But somewhere, it is becoming too much for cricket fans and players. In pursuit of money, players are devoting equal amount of time to their country as well as to other leagues, due to which they are not able to manage their workload properly. The result of this is that either the players get injured and go on a break for a long time or they are under mental stress. Mental stress has now become such a thing in cricket that players are quickly becoming its victims. This is because the players, who are playing matches one after the other, are not able to take time out for themselves nor are they giving rest to their body and mind. It is very difficult to maintain constant form, in such a situation players stretch themselves too much. As a result, there is a lot of pressure on their mind and they become victims of mental stress. Glenn Maxwell has recently become its victim, RCB’s star all-rounder Glenn Maxwell suddenly decided to take an indefinite break from this IPL league. However, this is not the first time that a cricketer has taken such a decision due to mental fatigue. Many cricketers have done this before also.
