Sri Lanka all-rounder Angelo Mathews has announced he will retire from Test cricket after the first game of the home series against Bangladesh that starts on 17 June.
The 37-year-old, who made his Test debut in 2009, has made 119 appearances in the longest format while scoring 8 167 runs - behind only Kumar Sangakkara (12 400) and Mahela Jayawardene (11,814) in Sri Lanka's all-time list.
He has scored 16 Test centuries and taken 33 wickets while he captained Sri Lanka in in 34 Test matches. He said he will remain available for the white-ball formats "if and when my country needs me".
Mathews said in a statement: "The past 17 years of playing cricket for Sri Lanka has been my highest honour and pride.
"I have given everything to cricket and cricket has given me everything in return and made me the person I am today.
"Whilst I bid adieu to the Test format, as discussed with selectors I will remain available for selection for the white ball format, if and when my country needs me."
