Abdul Razzaq Disappointed Over Mohammad Amir's Sudden Retirement

Former Pakistan all-rounder Abdul Razzaq expressed his disappointment over the fast bowler Mohammad Amir’s decision of early retirement from Test Cricket. Abdul Razzaq who is the current coach of domestic champions Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was not happy about Amir retiring from test cricket to concentrate on the limited-overs format.

Abdur Razzaq has represented Pakistan in 46 tests, 265 ODIs, and 32T20s and was a good finisher in the back end of the innings. He could use his long handle to effect and cleared the ropes on more occasions with ease. He had a lot of experience in ODI cricket and was a handy bowler too giving the odd breakthroughs.
