Misbah ul Haq retirement from Test 2017

Karachi: The chairman of PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board) 
Shahryar Khan has convinced Misbah ul Haq, that test captain of the Pakistan cricket team, to retire after West Indies tour scheduled to be played during Late March, to Late April.

“I have spoken to Misbah and discussed his future. I told him he needs to decide his future. He said he will come back to me after reviewing his form and performance in the PSL. He contacted me last week and told me he was available so I have retained him as captain”, Shahryar Khan.

“But at the same time it is a fact that during the tour, he will turn 43 and I don’t see him continuing to play on after the tour”, he also added.


Shahryar was the only key official of the Pakistan cricket think-tank that included chief selector Inzamam-ul-Haq, head coach Mickey Arthur and other senior officials to cast his vote in favor of retaining Misbah for the upcoming tour.
