KARACHI: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is expected to give flamboyant all-rounder Shahid Afridi a chance to officially announce his retirement from international cricket during the Twenty20 series against West Indies in the UAE later this month. According to a report in the ‘Daily Jang’, the PCB wants to Afridi to retire on his own after being ignored for the lone T20 international against England and last week. The former Pakistan captain has insisted that he wants to continue playing cricket and is available for national selection. “Apparently the board and national selectors don’t agree and feel that Afridi should retire gracefully although he can continue to play in foreign leagues and domestic cricket,” one PCB source said.
