Wahab Riaz, a Pakistani right-arm pacer, has declared his retirement from international cricket after the 2023 World Cup in India.

The 36-year-old pacer, who was on TV as a sports analyst on a TV channel during the T20 World Cup and hasn’t batted for Pakistan in a while, claimed in a recent interview that he believes he has a few years of “good cricket” left in him.

“Everyone has to say goodbye to cricket one day. But my target is to carry on playing until the 2023 World Cup, that is, if I remain fully fit and my passion for the game remains strong as well. Obviously, if I am performing I will carry on,” Wahab said.
