Shoaib Bashir: 'On that wicket, anything is possible'

Haris Rauf has been ruled out of the remainder of PSL 2024 with a dislocated shoulder. The Lahore Qalandars fast bowler suffered the injury during the match against Karachi Kings on Saturday and will need four to six weeks to recover. "The clinical board, after conference, presumed that he wants four to about a month and a half to recuperate, compelling him to miss the PSL season," the Qalandars said in an explanation. Rauf harmed himself off the subsequent last bundle of a tight game, taking a tumbling find running in from long-off to excuse Hasan Ali. Rauf took the catch neatly and moved ahead clumsily, promptly in torment. It couldn't forestall a fourth progressive misfortune for the reigning champs, however Rauf had a decent game with the ball. He got 1 for 22 from his four overs, a welcome re-visitation of structure after an extreme beginning. Rauf had been going at 11 runs for every over before the previous evening's down and had just picked just two wickets in those. The injury covers a troublesome few months for Rauf on and off the field, the first since he burst on to the scene with Qalandars. He had an unfortunate World Cup in India, battling to have an effect as Pakistan neglected to escape the gathering stages. That structure was to some degree corrected in New Zealand where he took seven wickets in a 4-1 series misfortune for Pakistan, yet went at 10.61 per over. By then, in any case, he was at that point amidst a wavering relationship with the PCB. He had turned down the chance to play in Pakistan's Test series in Australia before the New Zealand games, chafing boss selector Wahab Riaz and afterward group chief Mohammad Hafeez. Rauf said he needed to focus on his white-ball game and had an agreement with the Melbourne Stars in the BBL. After a postponement, the PCB conceded him a NOC to play in the association, however just until he needed to join the Pakistan side in New Zealand. His refusal to make himself accessible for Pakistan's Tests, nonetheless, prompted an assent recently, when the PCB ended his focal agreement. Notwithstanding his new structure Rauf's nonappearance will be a major misfortune to a generally vacillating Qalandars side. They are feeling the loss of the administrations this time of Rashid Khan, the Afghan genius who has been key to their progress in late seasons. However the T20 World Cup is as yet 90 days away, the course of events on his return implies that Rauf will be in a test of skill and endurance to guarantee he gets a legitimate spat to the occasion.
