Pakistan’s fiery pacer Haris Rauf has managed to catch attention and build a massive fan while playing for Melbourne Stars in Australia’s Big Bash League (BBL)
"There is no better example than [Haris] Rauf and the cult following that he quickly has built in Australia and with the Melbourne Stars and we'd love to see him back this year," Alistair Dobson General Manager BBL stated while addressing an online press conference.
While representing the franchise in the star studded BBL, Rauf has taken 36 wickets in 22 games for his side with a staggering average of 16.33. He also took a five-wicket haul for the Stars.
Continuing on his praise for the Pakistani speedster, Dobson termed Rauf as a standout example of South Asian talent in the league and said that his impressive performances for the Stars have set the bar high.
"He proved himself with [Melbourne] Stars and has been a tremendous asset to the league," the BBL official said, adding, "Players from this [South Asian] region consistently capture the attention of local fans with their exceptional skills."
"We hope to see a large number of South Asian players in the upcoming season," he remarked.
Furthermore, the BBL general manager said that the league's draft will take place in the next two weeks and noted: "BBL clubs are currently busy planning to strengthen their teams".
