This match is certainly appropriate to end his career, as Nixon has played for Kent from 2000 and 2002. Nixon also stated that this decision was made, as he is unable to maintain high level of fitness. He further added, “My body knows now I can't do it the way I want to do it anymore. I can't keep to those high standards anymore. All of my mentors said to me that you'll know when the time is right and the time has come.”

For England, Nixon played 19 one-day internationals. This figure could have been considerably higher, if Jack Russell and Alec Stewart would not have been his contemporaries. In his first class career, he has scored 14, 498 runs at an average of 34.35 having 21 centuries and 72 half-centuries.for more information, you can log on to http://www.2011cricketworldcuptickets.com
