The news was revealed by Zimbabwe Cricket on Saturday.

Chigumbura is on the tour and has been included in the team for the first T20I at Rawalpindi on Saturday.

He has made 213 ODI and 14 Test appearances, with 54 T20Is under his belt before the start of his swansong series.

Chigumbura’s two hundreds in ODIs came against Pakistan so he will hope that this series will give him a good farewell.

His career spanned 16 years.

Go well Elty!
