Rawalpindi [Pakistan], November 7 (ANI): Former Zimbabwe skipper Elton Chigumbura will retire from international cricket after the conclusion of the ongoing T20I series against Pakistan.
The all-rounder called time on his 16-year international career that began in 2004. Chigumbura has played 14 Tests and 213 ODIs, with 54 T20I matches before the start of his farewell series.

“Former @ZimCricketv captain Elton Chigumbura is set to retire from international cricket at the end of the current @TheRealPCB tour. He has made 213 ODI and 14 Test appearances, with 54 T20Is under his belt before the start of his swansong series,” Zimbabwe Cricket tweeted.
