“I am happy to announce that pursuant to meeting PCB officials, I have reconsidered my retirement and am delighted to declare my availability for Pakistan cricket in T20i format leading up to ICC T20i World Cup 2024,” he wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
Imad thanked PCB for “reposing trust” in him, and pledged to give my very best to bring laurels to my country.
Pakistan comes first, he added.
The 34-year-old cricketer last year in November announced his retirement from international cricket, saying it was the right time for him to end his stint as an international cricketer.
“In recent days I have been doing a lot of thinking about my international career and I have come to the conclusion that now it’s the right time for me to announce my retirement from international cricket,” he had stated in a post on X.
“It has truly been an honour to represent Pakistan. Each of my 121 appearances across the ODI and T20I formats was a dream come true,” Wasim noted.
The cricketer had said that he would look forward to focussing on the “next stage of my playing career away from the international stage.”
