In 2011, John was selected to participate in the ICC Cricket World Cup. Although England did not win the tournament, finishing fifth overall, his performance remained consistent. He also played crucial matches against New Zealand and participated in the Champions Trophy. By 2015, during a match against the West Indies, John publicly announced his plans for retirement, marking the end of a significant chapter in his cricketing journey.
Throughout his career, John maintained a strike rate of 44. He scored nine centuries in Test cricket and four in One Day Internationals (ODIs). He received the Man of the Match award in two Test matches and once in an ODI. Additionally, he was named Man of the Series in a series against Pakistan. One of his most prestigious honors came in 2011 when he was awarded Cricketer of the Year by the International Cricket Council (ICC), recognizing his contribution to the England cricket team that year.
In 2009, John married Abi Dollery, a press officer whose grandfather was a renowned cricketer and captain of the South African team. The couple welcomed a daughter and continue to reside in South Africa. John later authored an autobiography, where he candidly discussed his experiences with stress-related illness during his professional career.
As of recent estimates, John's income as a former cricketer is believed to exceed £700,000. While his exact net worth remains undisclosed, his successful career and enduring legacy in international cricket suggest considerable financial success.
