Guptill is currently in action for Auckland in the Super Smash, New Zealand's domestic T20 competition, and has also signed up for the PSL draft, where Islamabad United have the option to retain him.

Guptill also played 47 Tests from 2009 to 2016, though he didn't have as much success in the longest format, scoring 2586 runs at 29.38.

"As a young kid it was always my dream to play for New Zealand and I feel incredibly lucky and proud to have played 367 games for my country," Guptill said in an NZC statement. "I will forever cherish the memories made wearing the silver fern alongside a great group of guys.

"I want to say a huge thanks to all my team-mates and coaching staff over the years, in particular Mark O'Donnell who has coached me since the Under-19 level and been a source of ongoing support and wisdom over my career.

"To my wife Laura and our beautiful children Harley and Teddy - thank you. Thank you Laura for the sacrifices you have made for me and our family. You've been my biggest supporter, my rock and my counsel through all of the ups and downs that come with the game. I am eternally grateful.

"Finally, I'd like to thank all the cricket fans, here in NZ and around the world for all their support throughout the years."

Guptill was then part of the New Zealand team that had progressed to the T20 World Cup final in Dubai in 2021. Guptill was also part of the T20 World Cup squad in Australia in 2022 but did not get to play as Finn Allen was preferred over him.

In November 2022, Guptill gave up his New Zealand central contract to become a freelancer. Since then, he has played in Australia's Big Bash League, the Pakistan Super League, the Caribbean Premier League, the UAE's ILT20 and the Nepal Premier League.

"On his day, Gup was world-class and his crisp ball-striking and timing could take down the best bowling attacks in the world," Latham said. "His numbers speak for themselves, but it was the matches he helped us win that I'll remember, along with the way he set the standard in the field. I wish him all the best for what the future holds and hope to see him around a cricket ground soon."

Guptill's glittering Black Caps career will be acknowledged during the team's third ODI against Sri Lanka at Eden Park on January 11.
