Australia v Pakistan: Group A - 2011 ICC World Cup

The enigmatic Pakistani all-rounder was forced to captain the ODI side for one match back in December 2006 as the then captain Younis Khan had to miss the match.

Razzaq had a forgetful outing leading the side as Pakistan were thrashed by West Indies in the 4th ODI, which happened to be the only win for the Caribbean side in the series.

Pakistan managed to score only 209 in fifty overs with Razzaq scoring 33, which was the second highest individual score for Pakistan.

Marlon Samuels's century took the game away from Pakistan as they won the match by seven wickets with more than fifteen overs to spare.

Razzaq did not take up any captaincy role after that debacle.
