ISLAMABAD 25 July (Online): Cricketer has decided to leave cricket in order to give more time to her religion.<\/p>\n

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB)\u2019s Head of Women\u2019s Cricket, Tania Mallick, has opened up about Ayesha Naseem\u2019s sudden retirement from all forms of cricket.<\/p>\n

Tania stated that Ayesha has quit cricket due to \u201cpersonal reasons\u201d.
\n\u201cWe also wish the best of luck to Ayesha Naseem in her future endeavours as the PCB understands and respects her decision to quit the game for personal reasons,\u201d Tania was quoted as saying by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) in a press release.<\/p>\n

Reportedly, Ayesha has decided to leave cricket in order to give more time to her religion, Islam.<\/p>\n

Ayesha represented Pakistan women’s team in four WODIs and 30 WT20Is.
\nAccording to sources within the PCB, the management had also asked Ayesha to reconsider her decision but they were unable to change her mind.<\/p>\n

The right-handed batter rose to fame due to her power-hitting skills. She scored a cameo of 20-ball 24 against Australia in 2023 to come into the limelight.<\/p>\n

Overall, she has scored 402 runs in her international career so far.
\nTania also spoke about the Pakistan squad for the Asian Games which was announced earlier today.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing a part of the Asian Games is an exhilarating experience for our team. It’s not just about the competition; it’s about camaraderie, sportsmanship, and representing the country with pride. Our players have shown incredible dedication and skill, and now they have a golden opportunity to make history by winning the coveted title for the third time,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe team is unfortunate to miss out on the services of Bismah Maroof for this event as she would not have been able to accompany her infant daughter to the Games village due to the regulations in place,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
