Retired Pakistan cricketer Sana Mir on Sunday credited ICC for the “constant support and encouragement” which helped her follow her passion and dream bigger.
The 34-year-old Mir announced her retirement on Saturday after a 14-year-long shining career in which she was honored as one of the most successful female spin bowlers in one-day international cricket history.

“It has been an absolute pleasure being part of the cricket fraternity. Constant support and encouragement from ICC has helped us follow our passion and dream bigger. I thank CEO Manu and everyone at ICC for their incredible support throughout,” said the legendary player replying to the tweet.
