AUS vs PAK 2nd ODI: Haris Rauf revealed how playing BBL helped him when facing Australia

Haris Rauf stole the light as Pakistan destroyed Australia by 9 wickets at Adelaide Oval. The pacer had a massive contribution in Pakistan’s 9-wicket victory on Friday, as he finished with numbers of 8-0-29-5. Pakistan completed their chase of 164 with 23.3 overs remaining as they were playing on a superb batting pitch.

Haris being named as the Player of the Match was hardly shocking. Even Pakistan faced fall of two wickets, Rauf was nothing less in pressuring Australian batters at the MCG.

Efforts by Haris were however, not gone to waste in Adelaide. He is one of the players who is quite familiar with Australian circumstances.

Haris remembered about the days when he used to play with the Melbourne stars (in the Big Bash league) which helped him perform well, as he knew about the conditions beforehand.

“We are happy to win this game. We have fans everywhere in the world, we are just trying to give them happiness. I have played a lot of games for the Melbourne Stars, so I knew these conditions,” said Haris Rauf in the post-match presentation.

Haris has made sure that Pakistan will have a high chance of defeating Australia in a bilateral series far from home.
