Mash's retirement.. planned or forced?

[Rinathq]

I am obviously not gonna complain. He needs to focus on ODI because we need him for another year or 2. But just before the Lankan series, he said he has no plans to retire from T20. He even gave an interview where he said he wants transform our T20 team like he did with ODI. So why all of a sudden he announced his retirement? I mean if he planned it before obviously he wouldnt say all those things he said before. Was it his ego to keep Riyad in the team that caused some issue with the management? There was no official comment from BCB.. even though they did post about a spin hunt an hour after he announced his resignation.

There is nothing wrong with Mash wanting to leave. We know he isnt the best T20 bowler but I hope he left on his own terms and not due to any other issues. He is this guy that should never be forced or influenced to retire.
