The veteran has been a long-serving player for the Bangla Tigers after making his debut in 2007.  <!-- \/8323530\/ITv_Desktop_VDO_1X1 -->\n  <\/p>\n<p>Mahmudullah has reportedly confirmed that the ongoing series against India will be his last in the format. He featured in the first T20I against India on October 6 at the Shrimant Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium in Gwalior but could make only one run before falling to the debutant Mayank Yadav.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While the 38-year-old has decided to call it time to his T20I career, he has confirmed that he will be carrying on in the ODI setup. &#8220;I am retiring from T20I cricket after the last game of this series. I was pre-decided before coming here. I had a chat with my family. I spoke to the coach [Chandika Hathurusinghe], captain [Najmul Hossain Shanto], chief selector [Gazi Ashraf Hossain] and the board president [Faruque Ahmed] as well. I think it is the right time to move on from this format for me and the team. Especially with the World Cup coming up in less than two years. I will concentrate on the one-day game,&#8221; Mahmudullah said.<\/p>\n<p>Mahmudullah retired from Tests in 2021 and was dropped from T20Is in the latter part of 2022 and did not play a single game in the format in 2023. He made a return to T20Is in 2024 with a strong 54 against Sri Lanka in\u00a0Sylhet.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He had taken his game several notches up as a power hitter in 2016. &#8220;Back in 2016, there was a T20 World Cup in India. Before that, we had a training camp in Khulna. I changed my batting approach from that camp,&#8221; Mahmudullah said. &#8220;I had to bat at No. 6 or 7, so I decided to change my approach and style. It was the team&#8217;s finisher role. It was a very tricky place to bat. Not always you could finish the game. People would usually highlight the ones you didn&#8217;t finish, rather than the ones you were there for. But it is part and parcel of this game,&#8221; the veteran said on his change in playing approach.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mahmudullah has played in 139 T20Is, hitting 2395 runs and picking\u00a040 wickets in his 17-year-long career. He is the second-highest run-scorer for the Bangla Tigers in the format, behind <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/shakib-al-hasan\" rel=\"noopener\">Shakib Al Hasan<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async>\nfunction loadFacebookScript(){\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '529056027274737');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n}\nwindow.addEventListener('load', (event) => {\n\tsetTimeout(function(){\n        loadFacebookScript();\n\t}, 5000);\n});\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/sports\/cricket\/bangladesh-veteran-mahmudullah-announces-retirement-from-t20is-after-india-series-2024-10-08-956134\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image Source : PTI Mahmudullah confirms T20I retirement.
