New Delhi: Pakistan has produced many great players who have taken the team to new heights. Back in the 2000s, the reason they were so successful was because every player contributed on the field. One such player who was always involved in the game was Abdul Razzaq. The all-rounder churned out performances that took his team out of trouble on many occasions.

In a match against India in the Carlton & United Series, Razzaq single-handedly took the game away from them with his all-round performance. While batting, the Pakistani player scored a brisk 57-ball 70 runs and then took 5/48 to take the game away from the Indians.

After batting first, Pakistan scored 262/7, and the Indian innings just folded 230. For India, Sachin Tendulkar top-scored with 93 runs, but that was not enough. As far as the series is concerned, Pakistan met Australia in the finals, and the latter went on to win the tournament.
