Bangladeshi cricketer Abdur Razzak who is an orthodox left arm spinner, is his national most successful one day international bowler of all time having taken a record one hundred and seventy five wickets in the one hundred and twenty six matches he has played in.
Although the bowler has only managed just nine test matches for his country this is partially due to the Countries loos of test match status for a number of periods throughout their cricketing history. The Left arm bowler has also appeared in the Indian Premier League having played in the 2008 competition for Royal Challengers Bangalore, where the Bangladeshi international made just one appearance, but benefitted from coach and captain, Anil Kumble who played for the Indian national team as a fellow spin bowler.
Razzack has been called up to play in the un-official twenty 20 tournament, which will be a tri nation format between South Africa and Zimbabwe. The Bangladesh team start their campaign in Harare on June 18th against the host nation. The Bangladesh squad includes the return of Mohammad Ashraful who has been recalled by the selectors to represent the country he previously captained. Razzack believes this to be a positive inclusion and is looking forward to meeting up with his team mate, who he believes to be one of the best players Bangladeshi cricket has produced over its recent history.
Razzack who is now twenty nine is hoping to recapture his form ahead of the series and is looking forward to playing an important role for his country hoping they can upset the odds and win the tri-nation tournament over favourites South Africa who the majority feel have too much quality for their opponents.
