LAHORE, Aug 11: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has taken note of scathing comments made by Abdul Razzaq on a TV show recently, though it stopped short of saying whether any disciplinary action would be taken against him.

Razzaq told a private TV channel, soon after he was dropped from Pakistan's Twenty20 squad for the World Championship his omission was ‘illogical’ and threatened to make himself unavailable for Pakistan.

“If this is the way I am going to be treated after serving the country honestly and diligently,” Razzaq said. “I should be the one now to decide when to make myself available for national selection.”

Razzaq, who has taken 246 wickets and scored 4465 runs in ODIs, said he felt most hurt because no one from the board or selection committee called him to explain the decision.

“I don't know what the logic was. I am a senior player and deserve a phone call. When I was injured no one in the board bothered to call me up and find out how I was doing.”

Razzaq was one of seven Pakistani players to be approached by the Indian Cricket League (ICL). “I need to know what they have in mind but I am considering the ICL offer.”

Shafqat Naghmi, the PCB's chief operating officer, said that some comments did constitute a breach of the code of conduct.—Agencies
