He garnered 5689 runs at an average of 36.46, including four hundreds and 32 fifties. Mahmudullah's decision to retire comes a week after his compatriot and brother-in-law Mushfiqur decided to draw the curtain on his career in the ODIs. All centuries that the veteran scored in his career came in 50-Over ICC tournaments. He tonked two centuries in 2015 ODI World Cup and topped it up with an unbeaten 102 against New Zealand in the 2017 Champions Trophy in Cardiff. In his most recent success, Mahmudullah blazed his way to a 111 against South Africa in Mumbai during the 2023 ODI World Cup. His last appearance for the Tigers came during the recently concluded Champions Trophy. He played just one inning and returned cheaply with a score of 4 off 14 balls against New Zealand in Rawalpindi.
