Star Pakistan pacer Harris Rauf is currently in action with the San Francisco Unicorns in the ongoing Major League Cricket 2023 in the USA. Unicorns locked horns in the fourth match of the tournament against Seattle Orcas at the Grand Prairie Stadium. In the match, Rauf amazed everyone with his sensational delivery to dismiss the star opener Quinton de Kock in the second over of the Orcas’ innings.
Rauf bowled a full-length delivery straight at the stumps, which had some inwards movement, and De Kock tried to flick it away but couldn’t get it right. Subsequently, the bowl went on to hit the off stump with a bullet speed and the batter had no answers as he had to go back to the pavilion after scoring only seven runs.
The video of this amazing delivery bowled by Harris Rauf is now making rounds on social media within minutes of being shared by Unicorns on their official Twitter account.
Here’s the video:
