Sources said the bitterness of Razzaq and some of the other players was also due to the fact that the ICL organizers had not cleared their dues and the future of the league now looked bleak.
Razzaq also said his stints with Surrey and Middlesex in recent years have helped him to get back into international cricket and perform at the Oval.
"I have played a lot at the Oval before and it helped me immensely. I was able to also give input in the team meeting on the type of pitch, the outfield and the conditions and I think it helped me a great deal to have that background information," he said.
