Western Australia skipper Adam Voges has announced his retirement from domestic-state cricket, but he hasn't ruled out playing on with the Perth Scorchers next summer.

The 37-year-old still has a glimmer of hope of ending his first-class career with a Sheffield Shield title, but WA will need to beat NSW this week and rely on other results to fall their way if they are to make the final.

Voges, who announced his retirement from international cricket earlier this year, says his mind and body have been pushed to the limit, and now is the right time to retire.
