Izhaan and I are so proud of everything you have achieved but also for who you are. Here's to a few more thousand T20 runs," Mirza wrote on Twitter alongside an image of Malik in Pakistan cricket team jersey. Malik announced his retirement after Pakistan's final match in World Cup 2019 against Bangladesh on Friday. "Today I retire from One Day International (ODI) cricket. Huge Thank you to all the players I have played with, coaches I have trained under, family, friends, media, and sponsors. Most importantly my fans, I love you all," he tweeted on Friday. Malik made his ODI debut in 1999 in a match against West Indies in Sharjah. He has played 287 matches and scored 7,534 runs at an average of 34.55.
