She said, "Last few months have provided me with an opportunity to contemplate. I feel it is the right time for me to move on. I believe I have contributed to the best of my ability for my country and the sport. During my cricket journey, I have met and built strong friendships and bonding with some amazing cricketers. I would like to extend my gratitude to ICC for its continuous support to women's cricket. Tournaments like ICC Women's Championship have been a real game changer, especially for teams like Pakistan, South Africa and Sri Lanka as they proved vital in helping us express our talent at the international level.
"Last but not the least, [I thank] all the cricket fans and supporters around the world. Words fall short when I want to thank all of you for your love, support and encouragement you extended in the past 15 years.
"It has been an honour to serve Pakistan in cricket and to wear the green jersey with absolute pride. It is time for me to move on. Insha Allah the service will continue in essence and in a different form. Pakistan Zindabad," she said.
