After their exit from the ODI World Cup 2023, several former cricketers and pundits criticised the Men in Green for their below-par performance and joining them was Abdul Razzaq. However, Razzaq made controversial comments on the national team, as well as famous Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai.

In a video doing rounds on social media, the former player could be heard questioning the motives of Babar Azam and Co. while taking an example of the Indian actor. Umar Gul and Shahid Afridi were present alongside him, who laughed and clapped at Razzaq’s comments. He had said, “Younis Khan had a good intention as a captain, and it gave me confidence to perform better. Everyone over here is talking about the intention and Pakistan’s team.
Razzaq added, "Actually, we don’t have good intention to develop and polish players in Pakistan. If you think that by marrying Aishwarya Rai, a good and pious kid would be wrong, it would never happen."
His comments didn’t go well with the fans, and they took to Twitter to slam the ex-cricketer.
Speaking of their campaign in the tournament, the Men in Green managed to win only four out of their nine matches.
