Former Pakistani cricketer Abdul Razzaq is in hot water and the subject of intense backlash over his recent remark at an event. While talking to the media at a press conference, the former Pakistani cricketer was addressing the team's performance and strategies. Amid this discussion, the cricketer ended up using Aishwarya Rai's name to make a point. As you can imagine, this did go down well with social media. Now, after facing massive backlash, Abdul Razzaq has issued a public apology.

The controversial statement in question was, "Here, I am referring to their (PCB’s) intention. While I was playing, I was aware of my captain, Younis Khan's, good intentions. That gave me strength and confidence, and with Allah’s help, I was able to perform well for Pakistani cricket."
