In an Instagram Live session with Suresh Raina, Pathan hit out at the Indian team selectors for cutting down on his playing days for the Indian cricket team when he was just 30 years old.
Irfan made his Indian cricket team debut in the Test format back in 2003 against Australia at Adelaide and a few months later even made his ODI debut in Melbourne.

The seam bowling all-rounder played 29 Test matches, 120 ODIs and 24 T20Is and featured in his last international match for the Indian cricket team back in 2012 against South Africa.
Ready to make Indian team comeback
The 2007 World T20-winner also played imperative roles for his IPL sides Kings XI Punjab (2008-2010), Delhi Daredevils (2011-2013), SunRisers Hyderabad (2014), Chennai Super Kings (2015), Rising Pune Supergiants (2016) and Gujarat Lions (2017).
Irfan played his last competitive T20 match for Jammu & Kashmir during the 2019 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and announced his retirement from all forms of cricket in the first week of January this year.
The former Indian cricket team all-rounder also emphasised on his readiness to come out of retirement if the selectors give him a clear idea of a possible comeback into the Indian team.
