Razzaq came up with a bizarre allegation that as hosts, the Indian cricket team was unfairly using the home conditions, while stating that Australia’s win in the World Cup final was cricket’s triumph.
Former Pakistani cricketer Abdul Razzaq offers a public apology for a slip of the tongue involving Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. The controversy sparked criticism from the cricket community, including Shoaib Akhtar. Razzaq clarifies his intentions in a 27-second video, addressing the unintended use of Aishwarya Rai's name.
The talented player once revealed in an interview that Abdul Razzaq is his nemesis on the cricket field as he dismissed him six times during 2000 and 2006.
Notably, Pakistan is yet to beat India in a world-cup match as the Men in Blue have won all their matches against the neighbouring opponents.
Pathan took to Twitter recalling a statement made by former Pakistan skipper Javed Miandad in 2004, where the latter had said that bowlers like Pathan could be found in every street of Pakistan.
Abdul Razzaq claimed that India pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah would have been a baby in front of him had he still been active now.
Razzaq stated that he could have easily outplayed Bumrah as he has faced the likes of Australian great Glenn Mcgrath and legendary Pakistan pacer Wasim Akram.
Recently, the former Pakistan cricketer had claimed that he can make Hardik Pandya the best all-rounder in the world.
In 2011, Salman Butt, Mohammad Amir and Muhammad Asif were banned for a minimum of five years by the ICC's anti-corruption tribunal after they were first suspended in September 2010 for their role in match-fixing.
