"I will retire from ODI cricket after 2015 World Cup. Will continue to play Test cricket," Khan tweeted. The veteran batsman, who was made to open the innings in the first match against India, was out for a disappointing 6 runs after fending off a rising delivery from Mohammed Shami. Brought back to his favourite No.3 position, Younis was then out for a golden duck with West Indies quick Jerome Taylor getting him caught behind.
