Retirement. Afridi declared his retirement from Test cricket in July 2010. He retired from ODI cricket after the 2015 ICC World Cup. He announced his retirement from T20Is and international cricket in February 2017. He made his debut against England at Lord's Cricket Ground in April 1994. During his career he has won two man of the match awards, one in a losing cause. He also holds the record for the fastest fifty in the history of the Indian Premier League when he hit it off 37 balls back in 2008. In ODIs, he is the second highest run scorer behind Sachin Tendulkar with 3,088 runs. In Tests, he is third behind Tendulkar and Brian Lara with 17 tons. His record in both formats of the game is unlikely to be broken soon as he is already 36 years old. After retiring from international cricket, Afridi took over as coach of Peshawar Zalmi in Pakistan's PPL (Pakistan Premier League). The team was owned by Afridi's brother Shoaib who had bought them from Imran Khan before the start of the 2011 season. However, he resigned from this position in December 2011 after a dispute with the board over financial issues.
