Razzaq comes out in support of Salman, Asif

Pakistan's former all-rounder Abdul Razzaq has came out in support of former skipper Salman Butt and fast bowler Mohammad Asif, as the star called for their participation in the Pakistan Super League (PSL)

"I believe Asif and Salman should be given a chance in PSL to see how they perform," said Razzaq, while talking to a private news channel.

Razzaq further revealed that he intended to participate in the PSL, but things did not turn out as expected. "I had some hopes of playing in the PSL but unfortunately I did not get a good response to that," he said.

The former all-rounder called PSL better than the Indian Premier League (IPL) in standard wise. "PSL is a good standard and probably better than IPL but when you have played International cricket against top players, then PSL is a little easy for us to play," he said.

Earlier, Razzaq said that he could play in the next year PSL, if he is able to meet the fitness standards. "If I am able to perform and prove my fitness, then I am hopeful of participating in the next PSL as a player," he said.
