Tamim Iqbal has announced retirement from T20 International Cricket,You will be missed by every Bangladeshi fans & will be remembered as one of the finest batsman of Bangladesh cricket!
He is a senior player of Bangladesh Cricket. Maybe he wants to retire from T20 due to related reasons. Tamim is one of the experienced players in Bangladesh team. It would have been good for the team if he had participated in the upcoming T20 World Cup. Experienced players are much needed in World Cup. As we see Indian cricketer Virat Kohli is also being given opportunities again and again because of the T20 World Cup. Although Tamim is not such type of player but according to the situation of Bangladesh cricket it would be better for Bangladesh cricket if Tamim add to the T20 squad for upcoming T20 World Cup.
Tamim Iqbal was not that too old, just 33 years. He could have played T20I for one or two more years. He has played 78 t20i and scored 1758 runs for Bangladesh with strike rate of 116. Tamim has done his Job for Bangladesh and now its upto New talent to take over.
Tamim Iqbal is not too old. He could easily have continued playing in the T20 format for another 3/4 years. But I don't understand why he is thinking of retiring now. Bangladesh is yet to find a suitable replacement for Tamim Iqbal. There is no good opener in any Bangladesh squad. So if Tamim Iqbal retires now then the Bangladesh team will definitely face a problem. Tamim should be with the team for the next World Cup.
