Owais Shah ends first-class career

Former England batsman Owais Shah announced his retirement from first-class cricket yesterday.

The 34-year-old Shah wants to concentrate on shorter formats of the game, meaning he could remain at Essex next season.

Shah, who played six Tests and 88 limited overs matches for England, completed his first-class career with a hundred against Glamorgan last week.
