Hafeez to Retire From International Cricket After T20 World Cup

Pakistan veteran allrounder Mohammad Hafeez, who was recalled to the team for the Twenty20 Internationals against Bangladesh, on Friday said that he will retire from international cricket after the Twenty20 World Cup later this year, vowing to end his career on a positive note.

Hafeez has been one of Pakistan’s vital players – in all three formats – who has been influential in providing some stability at the top of the order and also a handy off-spinner since he made his debut during an England tour in 2003.

Hafeez, who’s career was marred by questions over the legality of his bowling action – reported on three occasions during international matches – was banned from bowling for 12 months in 2015.
