Pakistan’s Tri-Nation Series Opener Takes a Dramatic Turn
Pakistan’s fast bowler Haris Rauf was forced to leave the field during the opening match of the tri-nation series at the Gaddafi Stadium due to a sudden rib pain. The incident occurred while Rauf was bowling his seventh over and he began to experience discomfort which led to his early departure.
The Incident Unfolds
Rauf exit was a shock to the team and the audience. He had been bowling well until then, and his sudden departure raised concerns about his health. Following his exit, Salman Ali Agha took over the remainder of the over, trying to fill the gap left by Rauf departure.
New Zealand’s Recovery
Despite Rauf exit New Zealand managed to recover losing five wickets during the innings. Contributions from Kane Williamson and Daryl Mitchell both of whom scored fifties enabled the visitors to set a competitive total for the hosts. The match is still ongoing and Pakistan is yet to respond to New Zealand’s total.
What’s Next for Haris Rauf?
The extent of Rauf injury is still unknown and it remains to be seen whether he will be able to continue playing in the series. Fans are eagerly waiting for an update on his health and the team is hoping for his speedy recovery.
