Malan retired from international cricket

Talking to The Times, Malan said, ‘I have always performed very well from my side in the white ball format. Test cricket has told me a lot of things. I will regret a lot that I could not leave my mark in the Test format. This format has been really difficult and you cannot play cricket for 5 days in a row. My performance had declined from the fourth or fifth Test, but I never gave up and always performed brilliantly on behalf of my team.’
