According to reports, Pakistani international Abdul Razzaq has been fired by Middlesex with a lack of fitness being blamed.

The story originally broke on Cricinfo. It follows a hetic week for the all-rounder who was due to play in Pakistan's test series against Bangladesh but returned to Middlesex for the County Championship match against Lancashire at Old Trafford. His ommision from the team for the Warwickshire match was a sign of the end. It now remains highly unlikely he will return next season. There is no official comment from the club or any news as to whether he will be replaced by Imran Tahir

An interesting debate on what has gone wrong with Razza's form has started on the Pakistan Sportnetwork message board. Click here for the thread
