Old Video Of Haris Rauf Slapping Ghulam Kamran Goes Viral

Pakistan’s newest batting sensation, Kamran Ghulam, impressed with a stellar century on his Test debut against England in the second Test in Multan. The 29-year-old, batting at number four, replaced the out-of-form Babar Azam and showcased his talent against a challenging English bowling attack.

Ghulam played a vital role in Pakistan’s fightback, scoring 118 off 224 balls, including 11 boundaries and a six. He forged key partnerships, including a 149-run stand with Saim Ayub and a 65-run contribution with Mohammad Rizwan, helping Pakistan to 259-5 at the end of the first day.

Viral Video of Haris Rauf Slapping Ghulam Resurfaces

As Ghulam’s century earned him accolades, an old video from the Pakistan Super League (PSL) resurfaced, going viral on social media. The video, from 2022, shows a controversial moment when fast bowler Haris Rauf slapped Ghulam while playing for Lahore Qalandars.

The incident occurred after Ghulam dropped a catch off Rauf’s bowling. Following a wicket later in the match, Rauf slapped Ghulam in a light-hearted but surprising manner during the celebration. The two made amends later when Rauf hugged Ghulam after a successful run-out.

Kamran Ghulam’s Long Wait Ends in Style

Ghulam’s debut century marked the end of a frustrating wait for a place in Pakistan’s national team, following his record-breaking 1,249-run domestic season in 2020. His innings not only solidified Pakistan’s position after a shaky start at 19-2 but also made him the 12th Pakistani player to score a century on Test debut. His gritty knock lasted 323 minutes, ending just half an hour before stumps when he was bowled by Shoaib Bashir.

Ghulam’s impressive century on debut not only solidified his place in Pakistan’s cricketing future but also showcased his ability to perform under pressure. His long-awaited arrival in the national team, following a record-breaking domestic season, has paid off in style.

Despite the resurfacing of the viral PSL incident with Haris Rauf, Ghulam’s focus and determination on the field have overshadowed any past controversies. His performance has earned him a spot among Pakistan’s cricketing elite, making him a player to watch in the coming years.
