“In recent days I have been doing a lot of thinking about my international career and I have come to the conclusion that now is the right time for me to announce my retirement from international cricket,” he said in a post on X.

Wasim wished success to new coaches and leadership, saying that he looked forward to watching the team excel.

“I would like to thank the PCB for all their support over the years - it has truly been an honour to represent Pakistan. Each of my 121 appearances across the ODI and T201 formats was a dream come true,” the all-rounder said.

“I now look forward to focussing on the next stage of my playing career away from the international stage,” he added.
