Australia wicket-keeper Adam Gilchrist has announced his retirement from all forms of international cricket.

The 36-year-old will retire from Tests after the current match against India, and will quit one-day internationals at the end of the season.

"It's with great pride that I make the decision to retire," said Gilchrist, who on Friday broke the record for the most Test dismissals by a gloveman.

"I came to this decision after much discussion with those important to me."
