Razzaq eyes second coming
LAHORE - Pakistan all-rounder Abdul Razzaq believes that his time is not over yet and he would soon show his class in domestic cricket to stage a comeback in the national team. He said that he got a chance to bat three times out of eight matches in the World Cup which affected his overall performance. "The team management shuffled my batting order to the requirement of the time and for that I have no objection and have tried my best to come up to the expectations. I always wanted to
Kamran, Younis, Razzaq axed from team for WI tour
LAHORE - Many new faces have been selected in the Pakistan team for the West Indies series after seniors Younis Khan, Abdul Razzaq and Kamran Akmal and Umer Gul were shown the doors. Akmal was heavily criticised for his poor wicketkeeping as he dropped crucial catches and missed stumpings during the World Cup. Razzaq took only five wickets and made 104 runs in eight World Cup games while Younis, who started the World Cup very impressively, made just 69 runs in last five matches.
Razzaq keen to play his part
COLOMBO - All-rounder Abdul Razzaq on Tuesday said he was ready to play his part for Pakistan at the World Cup after a quiet opening to the tournament in which he has performed a peripheral role. The 31-year-old veteran of 256 one-day internationals batted at number eight during Pakistan's thumping 205-run triumph over Kenya and again in their 11-run win over co-hosts Sri Lanka.

Razzaq not being utilised properly
EXPERT COMMENT - I believe Pakistan should opt for specialist bowlers in their match against Sri Lanka, and in the later matches as well. Sri Lanka are familiar with the conditions and only specialists bowlers can unsettle them.
I would prefer to Kamran Akmal open the innings with either Hafeez or Ahmad Shehzad, with Younus Khan batting at number three and Razzaq also going up the order.
I think Razzaq's abilities are being wasted in these conditions. At the number eight

Razzaq not happy with IPL exclusion
LAHORE - Pakistan star all-rounder Abdul RAzzaq, who is yet to make an appearance in the Indian Premier League, feels disappointed over the exclusion of the Pakistan players from the tournament.
The IPL auction for the IV edition is to take place today without the inclusion of the Pakistan players. Although many Pakistan players played in the inaugural edition but Razzaq is yet to try his luck in the cash-rich tournament as he was associated with the unofficial Indian Cricket
