On Fan's 'Kohli Ke Do Chakke Yaad Aate?' Query, Rauf's Reaction Is Viral

Pakistan pacer Haris Rauf was targetted by a fan during a recent match of a franchise-based league. Rauf, who was fielding near the boundary rope, was reminded of Virat Kohli's iconic six off his bowling during the T20 World Cup in 2022. For the unversed, Kohli hit Rauf for back-to-back sixes during India's intense run-chase against Pakistan. One of those sixes landed straight on the sightscreen after Kohli stepped aside to non-chalantly pull Rauf's short-pitched delivery straight down the ground. 

That iconic shot from Kohli received a lot of praise from fans and experts, especially with the star batter helping India pull off an improbable chase.

Since then, Rauf have been often quizzed about Kohli's iconic six off his delivery, and the Pakistan pacer has been praised the former India captain for pulling that off.

However, a bunch of fans targetted him during a match. Rauf is currently playing for the Welsh Fire in the ongoing edition of the Hundred.

"Haris bhai, Melbourne abhi bhi yaad aata hai? Virat ke do chakke (Do you remember Melbourne, Virat's two sixes)," a fan asked Rauf.

However, Rauf handled the troll very casually, replying that he still remembers that he still remembers those two sixes.

"Ji yaad hai, abhi bhi yaad hai (Yes, I remember. I still remember)," Rauf responded.

Rauf recently made headline after a video of him charging towards a trolling fan went viral on Wednesday. In the video it can bee seen that Rauf and his wife were walking down a path, when a group of people said something towards them. Some of those people were wearing Pakistan jersey.

After Pakistan's group stage exit from the 2024 T20 World Cup, a fan was caught on camera in an argument with Haris Rauf, having allegedly thrown insults at the player's family.

156.7 Kmph Sensation Awaits India Debut, Bangladesh Start Life After Shakib

Pace sensation Mayank Yadav is expected to unleash his raw speed while the absence of India's T20 regulars will provide another opportunity to the fringe players in the three-match series against Bangladesh, beginning here Sunday. Having consistently generated speed in excess of 150kmph in his maiden IPL earlier this year, Mayank had drawn the attention of the cricketing world before a side strain ruled him out of the tournament. Usually, one has to prove fitness in domestic cricket to be considered for national selection but the 22-year-old has been fast-tracked into the side considering his special talent. The series against Bangladesh will be a test of his fitness and temperament. It is yet to be figured if he can display the same accuracy and control that he exhibited in the IPL. Besides Mayank, fellow Delhi pacer Harshit Rana and all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy could also make their India debut over the course of the series. Nitish was picked for the Zimbabwe tour post the T...

PCB Not Happy With Pak Star Over Social Media Post On Babar Snub: Report

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is not pleased that Fakhar Zaman questioned the selection panel's decision to sideline Babar Azam from the Test side. The panel dropped former captain Babar Azam when they announced the squad for the remaining two Tests against England in Multan and Rawalpindi. Zaman took to X to question the decision, inviting the ire of the PCB. "The top board officials are not pleased with the tweet sent out by Fakhar and relevant persons are having a word with him about it," a well-informed PCB source said. "It's concerning to hear suggestions about dropping Babar Azam. India didn't bench Virat Kohli during his rough stretch between 2020 and 2023, when he averaged 19.33, 28.21, and 26.50, respectively. "If we are considering sidelining our premier batsman, arguably the best Pakistan has ever produced, it could send a deeply negative message across the team. There is still time to avoid pressing the panic button; we should focus on sa...

Gardner Shines Again As GG Register Six-Wicket Win Over UPW In WPL 2025

Skipper Ashleigh Gardner starred with both bat and ball, leading Gujarat Giants to a comprehensive six-wicket win over UP Warriorz in their Women's Premier League match in Vadodara on Sunday. Gardner (2/39) claimed two wickets and then scored a stylish 32-ball 52, her second consecutive fifty, as Gujarat registered their first win of the third edition of the tournament, following a loss in the opening game to Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Opting to bowl, Gujarat produced a clinical effort with young spinner Priya Mishra returning impressive figures of 4-0-25-3. Skipper Gardner, Deandra Dottin (2/34), and Kashvee Gautam (1/15) also played key roles in restricting UPW to 143 for nine. Chasing 144 to win, the Giants were reduced to 22 for 2 with opener Beth Mooney and Dayalan Hemalata back in the pavilion after UPW introduced spin at both ends. However, Gardner produced an inspired knock, adding 55 runs off 42 balls with Laura Wolvaardt (22) to resurrect the innings. Gardner struck t...
