LAHORE: Veteran batter Shoaib Malik has announced his retirement from the Pakistan Super League (PSL), drawing the curtain on a decade-long chapter that helped shape the league’s identity and competitive culture. Sharing the news on social media, Malik reflected on the friendships, memories, and milestones that defined his PSL journey, adding that while he’s stepping away as a player, his passion to serve cricket remains undiminished.
Malik’s PSL legacy is anchored in consistency and longevity. Representing Karachi Kings, Multan Sultans, Peshawar Zalmi, and Quetta Gladiators, he became one of the league’s most trusted middle-order anchors and a reliable finisher. He retires as the fourth-highest run-scorer in PSL history with 2,350 runs at an average of 33.09 across 92 games, a testament to his ability to read situations, rotate strike, and accelerate late without panic.
