The Australian allrounder, 31, had taken a break from cricket after last year's WBBL and has now opted to step away from the elite game permanently.

Kimmince made her Australia debut in 2008 and featured in 16 ODIs and 44 T20Is for her country.

She was part of the squads which won the T20 World Cup in 2014, 2018 and 2020, and has won the WBBL twice with Brisbane Heat.

"DK should be incredibly proud of her contribution to Australian cricket," national selector and high performance manager Shawn Flegler said. "She made her international debut at the very young age of 18, took a break from the game and returned to make a huge contribution at all levels.

"During that time she developed from a raw fast bowler into a genuine allrounder and has been regarded as one of the best fielders in the world.

"She's a been a wonderful teammate and an important member of our Ashes- and T20 World Cup-winning squads and we thank her for her outstanding service to the game."
