What an incredible record, with so many personal and team milestones. But as an outside observer, her contribution off the field, for the growth of this great game, has also been phenomenal #wellplayedMeg https://t.co/iIr4JR4tMA

The game is richer for her impact, she inspired and entertained home and away, her captaincy record unmatched. A star to call and watch. Congrats Meg and may your next adventure be equally rewarding. #ThanksMeg https://t.co/P37Bclvt03

#MegLanning did many things right in her playing days. As a captain, her decision making was almost flawless. As she exits, she leaves behind another benchmark tough to emulate; with everyone wondering, why so soon? Congrats skipper. Well played and happy retirement.

Meg Lanning holds the unique accolade of being the only cricketer to have hit me onto a pavilion roof (in a match, let's not talk abt nets). For that alone, I call GOAT. Cheers Meg, go well. https://t.co/9JuSIuabrX
