"There hasn’t been an official retirement because that’s not how I am, but like I said, my international cricket days are done. I am focussing on domestic cricket and giving back to the team as much as I can. I was fortunate to represent South Africa in all 3 formats, I had an opportunity to represent my country. My playing days for South Africa are done. I am not one for announcing things and officially retiring and all of that. They know where I stand, I know where I stand, but my days are done for CSA, I think they know that,” Morris said to Sportskeeda.

The lanky all-rounder also refrained from talking much about CSA's treatment of its senior players, saying that he was content with his life and career. Notably, Chris Morris, Faf du Plessis and Imran Tahir were not considered for South Africa's squad for ongoing T20 World Cup 2021. All the three players were part of the IPL 2021 and were well aware of the conditions in the Gulf nation. 

"I had my discussions with whoever I needed to quite a while ago, I haven’t spoken to CSA since then. At the end of the day, how they treated Faf (du Plessis), Immi (Imran Tahir) or me is something they’ve to deal with, there is no way I can comment. I wasn’t a part of the negotiations, I haven’t been spoken to for a year, maybe longer than a year. So can’t really comment on what’s happening, a few stories are coming out, I know which one I can believe. It’s a touchy subject, there are so many different angles to it," he concluded.
