Pakistani experienced Allrounder Shoaib Malik feels that he still has the potential to represent Pakistan in T20Is, Malik who already retired from Test and One Day International but he has not quit the T20 cricket so he wants to be back in the Pakistan T20I setup.
Malik played his Last T20I for Pakistan in November 2021 against Bangladesh and hasn’t been picked in the squad after that series.
Malik continues playing Franchise cricket and has done well for the T20 Leagues team, so he feels that he can perform for the National side as well.
Shoaib Malik said, “Trust me, even though I’m the oldest in the team, you can compare my fitness with a 25-year-old. So, I guess what motivates me is I still enjoy coming to the ground and I still think that the hunger is there and until the time these two things are there, I’m gonna keep playing cricket and this is why I am not even thinking of retiring,” Malik, who is playing for Rangpur Riders in the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League, told reporters at the Sylhet International Stadium on Sunday (January 29).
“I would like to retire from internationals and complete cricket once and for all but right now I’m not even thinking about it and I am enjoying my cricket whenever I get an opportunity I do go and play. I have already retired from Tests and ODIs and T20s yes I’m still very much available and wherever I get my opportunity I will give my best shot.”
