Taylor calls Wagner's retirement 'forced'; Williamson clarifies

Former New Zealand batter Ross Taylor said that the retirement of pacer Neil Wagner was a "forced" one. Ahead of the first Test between Australia and New Zealand, Kiwi fast bowler Wagner announced his retirement from international cricket. The left-armer finished his Test career with 260 scalps in 64 Tests. Kiwi batter Kane Williamson played down all the concerns, saying that "nobody is forced to retire".
