The Pakistan Cricket Board had earlier dismissed Wahab Riaz and Abdul Razzaq from the selection panel, owing to the national team's poor show in T20 World Cup 2024.

Wahab Riaz and Abdul Razzaq on Thursday rubbished allegations of favouring certain Pakistan players and forcing other selectors to toe the line in the T20 World Cup.

Former Pakistan cricketer Wahab Riaz on Wednesday broke his silence on being removed from the national selection committee set up by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).

Former Pakistan cricketers Wahab Riaz and Abdul Razzaq have been sacked after Pakistan's group stage exit from the T20 World Cup 2024, after losses to USA and India.

Mohammad Yousuf and Abdul Razzaq are also both part of the new selection committee of the board.

Abdul Razzaq took aim at the Indian cricket team following their loss in the Cricket World Cup 2023 final against Australia.

Issuing a clarification on Shahid Afridi's behalf, Shoaib Akhtar said that the former Pakistan captain didn't understand Abdul Razzaq's controversial remarks on Indian actress Aishwarya Rai.

Former Pakistani cricketer Abdul Razzaq issued an apology over his controversial 'Aishwarya Rai' comments while criticising the Pakistan cricket team.

Shahid Afridi distanced himself from the controversial statement made by his one-time teammate Abdul Razzaq involving Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

Shoaib Akhtar had a blunt take on teammate Abdul Razzaq using the reference of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to criticise the Pakistan cricket team.
