5 famous Indian cricketers whose career might end in 2017

Munaf Patel

The unsung hero of India’s 2011 World Cup triumph, Munaf Patel finished as India’s third-leading wicket-taker behind Zaheer Khan and Yuvraj and like his fellow pacer, it looks likely that Munaf Patel will call time on his international career.

The 33-year-old fast bowler hasn’t played for India since August 2011 and with plenty of young fast bowlers coming through the ranks and Munaf making little impact in the domestic circuit, it looks unlikely that he will play for India again. And that might mean that the bowler with over 100 scalps for India across all formats might follow Zaheer Khan into retirement from international cricket.
