Former Pakistan all-rounder Abdul Razzaq is often in the news for his controversial statements. Last year, he created controversy by calling Jasprit Bumrah a 'baby bowler' when comparing him to the fast bowlers of his day. Bumrah is currently one of the best fast bowlers in the world in all three formats and Razzaq believes This Indian fast is poised to become a world-class bowler.
Razzaq said that his statement about Bumrah was misinterpreted, although he still maintains that the level of bowling during his playing days It was better. McGrath said in an interview to PTI, 'I have nothing against Bumrah in my mind, I just compare them to bowlers like Glenn McGrath, Wasim Akram, Kurtli Ambrose, Shoaib Akhtar. Was doing this Which would have been more difficult to face. My comment was misinterpreted.
Razzaq said, "He is moving towards becoming a world-class bowler. But in our time, the bowlers were more capable. Not many people can question this. Also, he believes that the level of cricket has declined in the present and he attributed the overdose of T20 cricket to this.
Razzaq said, 'You don't feel the same pressure facing the current generation of fast bowlers, overall this is a bad phase in the cricket of the world. We are not producing world-class players like we used to do 10-15 years ago. Razzaq said you had Tendulkar, Zaheer, Sehwag, Ganguly in the same team. He would have made a place in my team too. Perhaps more T20 cricket is responsible for this decline.
