Hasan Ali hints at ODI, T20I retirement to focus on Test cricket

Srinagar: Pakistan pacer Hasan Ali has said that Test cricket is his first love and he would prefer to retire from T20’s and ODI’s rather than Test Cricket.

 “Test cricket is my love. Even if the time comes to retire from T20s and ODIs, I won’t even think about quitting Test cricket as long as I’m fit,” Hasan Ali was quoted as saying.

 “My job is to perform. Whether or not I get selected is up to the PCB, the captain, and the team management,” he said.

Hasan Ali made his debut against Ireland in 2016. The right-arm pacer has represented Pakistan across all formats. The Gujranwala-born pacer has so far played 24 Tests, 66 ODIs, and 54 T20Is.

Hasan Ali’s last Test appearance came against Australia in 2024 at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). The 31-year-old has taken 80 international wickets at a decent average of 27.31 in the longest form of the game.

However, he is not part of the squad for the three-match series against Bangladesh, set to commence on 20 July in Dhaka.

Hasan Ali is currently representing Birmingham Bears in the ongoing Vitality Blast in England. The right-arm pacer has been in excellent form, picking up 21 wickets in just nine games at an impressive average of 13.38.
