Mohammad Yousuf and Rameez Raja created one of the most sensational moments as they were involved in a verbal duel on live television late last year. On being quizzed about Mohammad Amir's inclusion in the team, Rameez Raja replied, “People with beards should not lie openly.”

This seemed to set off a fuse as Mohammad Yousuf in an agitated manner started blaming Rameez Raja for being not good enough to pass judgements on cricket. “A shameful man like you can only say things like these. You have not done anything in your career and now you can only say things like these. If you have any shame you should not speak about cricket,” he said.

He also said that Rameez Raja is nothing but 'an English teacher' and had a very poor record as a cricketer. When the host tried to intervene, Rameez Raja, in a mood to relent, said that he should not be called if they have 'fake pious' people on the show.
