Twitterati bashes Abdul Razzaq over PSL XI vs IPL XI statement

Twitterati bashes Abdul Razzaq: Former Pakistani all-rounder faced severe criticism on the social media platform over his statement.

Former Pakistan all-rounder Abdul Razzaq has made the rounds in the media since last year primarily because of his comments over Indian cricketers.

From offering to coach India all-rounder Hardik Pandya to laying emphasis on fast bowler Mohammed Shami’s religion to taking a sly dig at captain Virat Kohli, Razzaq has been pretty vocal on cricketers from across the border.

In what is his first statement on cricket related to India this year, Razzaq believes that the top XI players from the Pakistan Super League can beat the top XI players from the Indian Premier League, if they play a T20 against each other.
