Pakistan’s veteran batsman Younis
Khan has announced his retirement
from one-day international cricket,
saying the first day-night game
against England in Abu Dhabi on
Wednesday will be his last match.
In a statement issued to the media
Younis said that it was never easy for a
cricketer to decide when to retire after
15 years in international cricket.
“I am fortunate that I have been able
to decide myself when to retire in T20
internationals and ODIs,” Younis said.
The national selectors had, in a
surprise move, recalled Younis for the
four-match ODI series against England
after ignoring him for this format since
the World Cup early this year in
Australia and New Zealand.
The 37-year-old will be appearing in
his 265th one-day international on
Wednesday, nearly 16 years after
making his debut against Sri Lanka in
Karachi in February 2000.
