Melbourne, Jan 23 (IBNS): Ending hopes of winning another title, Spain's Rafael Nadal retired hurt during the quater-finals clash of the singles event against Marin Cilic here on Tuesday.

He reached the semi-finals of a Grand Slam event for the first time.

Edmund defeated his opponent  6-4 3-6 6-3 6-4 in the match that left spectators stunned.
