Lewis Hatchett, the Sussex left-arm pace bowler, has announced his retirement on medical advice after having defied the odds to have a professional career.Hatchett, 26, was born with Poland Syndrome, a condition which appears in only one in 100,000 births, and leads to problems down one side of the body. For Hatchett it meant he was missing his right pectoral muscle and two ribs, leading to a weak delivery arm and a right shoulder that sits higher than his left, causing sharp pain after a days play. Yet he overcame those obstacles to have a six-year career with Sussex.But his 2016 season was curtailed by a lower-back injury that forced to an end to his career.It is with great sadness that I have to announce my retirement from professional cricket due to injury, he said. Following medical advice, my long-term health is most important to me and I have to listen to my body.To have to end my career in this way has been devastating, but to play six years at my home county has been a dream come true.I will forever be proud that I managed to realise my dream of playing for Sussex and considering the journey I have had, fills me with further pride.Ive met some incredible people throughout my career, especially at Sussex. Ive made friends for life through this sport and it was a huge honour to wear the Martlets on my chest every time I played. I wish the team all the success in the future and will watch fondly.Finally, I will forever be grateful to my parents for their support all throughout my career, from a young age even to this day. I could not have done it without them. And to my brother, Bradley, for not only his support but for all the fond memories from playing cricket in the garden as kids to playing together at club level.Hatchett took 72 first-class wickets at 35.08 along with 19 in List A matches and 11 in T20s. In what would become his penultimate first-class match, against Derbyshire in May, he claimed 5 for 58.In an interview with the Guardian in July, where he spoke for the first time about his condition, Hatchett said: Getting told I was getting a full-time contract was like my ultimate goal being achieved - I dont think I have ever been happier than that day. There were times when I had doubts as to whether I was doing the right thing and injuries did, and still do, take a lot to come back from. But if my career ends tomorrow I will be happy with what I have achieved. I have made myself into a professional cricketer.Sussexs head coach Mark Davis said: I would like to congratulate Hatch on everything he has achieved at Sussex. He is somebody that despite real challenges has made the most of himself as a county cricketer.Lewis will be successful at whatever he chooses to do post-cricket, due to his extraordinary work ethic and drive. I wish him all the best for the future. Adidas Yeezy Boost Italia . -- Catcher Brett Hayes has agreed to a $630,000, one-year contract with the Kansas City Royals, avoiding salary arbitration.

MOSCOW -- Russia accused the International Paralympic Committee of extortion Wednesday after it required Russian officials to pay for extra drug-testing following the countrys doping scandal.Russias team was banned from the Paralympics in Rio de Janeiro in September after a World Anti-Doping Agency report accused some of the countrys leading sports officials of covering up hundreds of failed drug tests.The IPC published a list of conditions this week that Russia must fulfill in order to be reinstated in time for the 2018 Winter Paralympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea, including fees totaling 575,000 euros ($608,000) to cover the significant costs resulting from the increased (drug) testing of Russian athletes.Russian Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Mutko said the financial issues are exaggerated, and Id even call them extortion. He also opposedd a demand that Russian Paralympic chiefs cut ties with the government.ddddddddddddThe IPC officials think that theres no one above them but their own conscience, Mutko said in comments to state news agency Tass. What does it mean that the state shouldnt be among the management? The Paralympic movement does nothing anywhere in the world without state support.Other conditions in the IPC document include increased anti-doping education for athletes and staff and a demand that the Russian Paralympic Committee must distance itself from all political/propaganda statements issued by Russian authorities.Russian Paralympic officials have said they plan to study the conditions with lawyers ahead of a meeting with the IPC.
