Nabi quits captaincy
Mohammad Nabi has stepped down as captain of the Afghanistan national cricket team after more than two years in the job, citing his own poor form and the team's performance.
"I have served Afghanis-tan's national team as captain for more than two years. I tried my best to bring victories to our team and the nation," he wrote in his letter to the Afghanistan Cricket Board.
"Given the recent performance of the team and particularly my out of form status, I would like you to accept my resignation as captain and allow me to continue to play as a team player."
Afghanistan made their World Cup debut under Nabi's captaincy this year, making their mark with a historic one-wicket win over Scotland.
