Mushfiqur Rahim retired from ODIs after Bangladesh couldn’t qualify for the semi-final of the Champions Trophy 2025. The 37-year-old wicketkeeper-batter pulled the curtains down on his 50-over career after he scored only two runs from as many games in the mega event against India and New Zealand.

Mushfiqur put forth his decision through a post on Instagram where he said that he has had his fair share of challenges over the last two weeks. The veteran decided to retire on the same day as Steve Smith bid goodbye to ODI cricket following Australia’s defeat to India in the semi-final on Tuesday in Dubai.
