Haris Rauf Should Have Been Part Of Pakistan Test Squad Against Aus, Says Shahid Afridi
The absence of Rauf, who withdrew from the series before the squad announcement, citing workload management and a need to protect his body, left a void in Pakistan's fast-bowling arsenal.
Rauf's decision to prioritize his physical well-being led him to the Big Bash League in Australia, where he donned the Melbourne Stars jersey and showcased his skills in four games. While Rauf plied his trade in the BBL, Pakistan embarked on the series with a pace unit lacking the high-speed artillery they desperately needed.
