I didn't really enjoy the cricket as much as I'd have liked to," ESPNcricinfo quoted Malan as saying."I just needed a fresh challenge," he added."When I spoke to them, Yorkshire seemed like a team that really want to win trophies, and that's the ambition. I don't want to finish my career just plodding along in county cricket. I want to be somewhere that really wants to challenge to win stuff."
