KOLKATA: England batsman Dawid Malan said that Saturday’s match against Pakistan could be his last for his country.
The match, which has little significance for the defending champions, will be held at the historic Eden Gardens ground.
Jos Buttler’s England managed just two wins in their first eight group matches to be eliminated from the tournament and are now playing for a top-eight finish to secure their place in the 2025 Champions Trophy in Pakistan.
The debacle has prompted demands for a complete overhaul of the 50-overs side, and Malan knows age is not on his side even though he has been England’s best batter in the tournament.
“I guess I’m in a unique situation being the second oldest in this team,” the 36-year-old told reporters at Eden Gardens.
“I don’t know what my future holds, whether that will be my choice or the team’s choice.” (Reuters)
