The veteran all-rounder of Afghanistan, often referred to as Mr. President, Mohammad Nabi, has decided to undo his retirement plan from the One Day International (ODI) cricket. Earlier, the ACB chief confirmed that, Mohammad Nabi, 40, would call it a day from ODI cricket after the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. However, before to the start of the eight-team marquee event, Nabi revealed that he would look to continue his ODI career as he wishes to play with his 18-year-old son Hassan Eisakhil. Hassan Eisakhil represented Afghanistan in the 2024 U19 World Cup, where he scored just 43 runs in four matches while batting as an opener for his side. ICC quoted Nabi as saying: "These might not be my last ODIs (the Champions Trophy) and I will probably play less ODIs and give chances to the youngsters to build experience. I've discussed with the senior players and in the high-level games, maybe or maybe not, we'll see. It will depend on my fitness." Nabi said: "It's my dream (to play together for the country) and hopefully we can do it. He is doing very well, he is a hard worker and I'm also pushing him to work". He added: "I want him to make his own goals, if you want to get to be a high-level cricketer, you have to work hard. It's not enough to make 50 or 60, you have to score 100-plus. He's listening and pushing all the time. When he can talk to me, I try to give him advice to give him confidence for the game."

Naseeb Praises Nabi’s Impact on Afghan Cricket's Growth Mohammad Nabi made his international debut in Afghanistan's first-ever ODI against Scotland in 2009. In that match, the all-rounder scored a half-century. Since then, Nabi has played 170 ODIs for Afghanistan, scoring 3618 runs and taking 172 wickets. He has contributed immensely to the growth of Afghan cricket over the years. Reflecting on this, the CEO of the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB), Naseeb Khan, showered praise and gratitude on the player. The CEO of ACB, Naseeb Khan said: "Mohammad Nabi is a living legend in Afghan cricket. From the early days when cricket was almost nonexistent in Afghanistan to now, with the team among the top eight in the world, no one has contributed more to the sport's growth than he has." He added: "Whether he decides to retire or continue playing is entirely his choice. However, when you look at his exceptional performance in all departments fielding, batting, and bowling along with his remarkable fitness, it's clear that age truly is just a number."
