During the last league game of PSL 2022 between Qalandars and Zalmi, a shocking incident caught everyone’s attention as Pakistan pacer Haris Rauf slapped his teammate Kamran Ghulam while celebrating a wicket.
Rauf lost his cool in the second over of Zalmi’s innings when Ghulam dropped Hazratullah Zazai’s catch. Three balls later, Rauf dismissed Mohammad Haris, and when his teammates g🧸ot together to congratulate him, the speedster slapped Ghulam.
However, later in the innings, when Ghulam ran out Wahab Riaz with a direct hit, Rauf walked up to his teammate and gave♒ him a hug, warmly tapping him on the side of his head.
