[VIDEOS] Has Haris Rauf proved himself to be a worthy member of the Pakistan side?

People look for any excuse to bash this guy/

He took out PP's golden boy Rizwan. He should have had Maqsood until Blessed in all facets of the game dropped a sitter. Some streaky boundaries in the last over, but yes he is expected to deliver it better.

He will be back, and his haters wont bump this thread.
 
Street bowler. He will break records for giving away the most runs in a T20I or ODI spell. Even Wahab is a better option

Yes. Those length deliveries that went for six were “Streaky boundaries”. Does anyone support as many mediocre cricketers as this guy?

Haris Rauf last 3 performances in the PSL:

4-51-1
4-41-0
4-44-0

1 for 136 at an economy-rate of 11.33
 
Rauf has a lot to offer. But look at the bowlers coming through. This kid Dahani is a future star.

Rauf can really crank it up though. He is a good white ball bowler. I have a feeling Dahani would be more suited to red ball cricket.
 
Haris is quick but he leaks too many runs.He should learn from Imran Khan snr how to bowl proper line and length balls.An intelligent bowler can make adjustment after one over.
 
I agree. Dahani looks great. Has huge potential to join SSA and emulate Wasim-Waqar.

Theres no concept of line and length in tape ball cricket. It's all about yorkers and pace bc batsmen are not playing cricketing shots there, they are just swinging
 
Not great at all from Haris Rauf - bowling too short.

What planning has gone in for this?
 
The guy is dumb as a rock. You bowl on off stump, you threaten the batsman but this idiot thinks bowling short and wide is the way to go.
 
Trash bowler. Rauf is not good enough for this level. Amazing job by selectors who pick players based on mickey mouse cricket.
 
The guy is dumb as a rock. You bowl on off stump, you threaten the batsman but this idiot thinks bowling short and wide is the way to go.

You have to have brain and skills to set up a batsman. Rauf is a tulla baz bowler. There is zero planning or skills.
 
Unbelievably bad bowler. Who was ever rating this guy?

Not me. I said in the thread about the team selection that we should be picking someone like Imran Khan Jr ahead of Rauf because that guy has good control and can get bounce.

I just don't understand why selectors still won't appreciate how important consistent line and length is, and a bowler who has some smarts.
 
Rauf has wicket taking balls, but in between there is absolute rubbish, which relieves all pressure. In any given over he is bowling at least 3 bad bowls, which are either short or short and wide. I am beginning think that these are not deliberate but a serious issue with the repeatability of his action.
 
Unable to make an impression on England batsmen - his position in the Pakistan side looking very dicey
 
Brainless bowler. Holding up space for bowlers with better perspective. Hope he gets dropped for the rest of the tour.
 
As much as I criticised Rahat atleast he had the ability to swing the ball.

This guy is an terrible pick in the ODIs and is also lucky to stay in the T20s.

Brainless and no redeeming qualities at all.

Selectors must take full responsibility. When fans were warning this would happen, then what the hell have they been watching for the past two years??
 
this guy is a modern day ata ur rehman. should be nowhere near a pakistan team honestly. absolutely brainless.
 
Wicket of Gregory - Rauf being congratulated like he's taken out Virat Kohli

He's celebrating like a non-league footballer would celebrate scoring a goal against a Premier league club. For them it would be a momentous occasion, and I guess it's an honour for Rauf to take a wicket after being pummelled like a stepchild as well.
 
There is a reason why I’ve been calling him a tape ball bowler for ages.

He is absolutely shocking. Just runs in and throws the ball at the batsmen with no thought-process.

He has no awareness of what the batsman is doing, what the match situation is, and what the field is.

He is going to cost Pakistan big time in the WT20. He will concede 50+ runs multiple times.

Take him to IPL today and this guy will break the record of most 4s and 6s conceded by an individual bowler in a an IPL season.

This is what happens when you fast-track bowlers from the streets and pick them in international cricket when they have less than 10 FC wickets.
 
He's been around the national team for a while now yet he's the same bowler he was on debut.

Does anyone know what Waqar's role is supposed to be?
 
He has serious problems with his run up and action and that useless waqar hasn't done anything to fix these issues.It's just amazing he generates so much pace just from his arm speed.

Bowling coach needs to be hold accountable.
 
Tbh Hasnain could've done better than him. There is no doubt that Hasnain will now get a chance in the next match, he will perform better than Rauf but in the next series we will see Rauf in XI squad again.
 
Even now, the best ODI bowlers are line bowlers who bowl a high percentage of deliveries on off or in the channel outside off. This guy doesn't have that level of control
 
A mediocre brainless bowler who has shown no improvement at all - needs to be dropped. Clearly not good enough for international one day cricket.
 
Can Haris Rauf be Liam Plunkett of Pakistan?

Pakistan may have got whitewashed but they have unearthed another pace bowler.

He may go for runs but keeps chipping with crucial wickets, which reminds me of Liam Plunkett, who was the unsung hero of England's World Cup triumph.
 
34 runs conceded from his first 2 overs today in the 2nd T20I. He's having a very bad day so far.
 
Haris returns to bowl his specialist death overs. First ball, Liam Livingstone hits him back over his head, literally out of the stadium.

40 runs conceded, 13 balls bowled.
 
The worst thing is that once this torture ends the “solution” from management will be to bring back Riaz
 
I've said it before the experiment with the rock thrower must end.

We have hasan ali and shaheen as our main bowlers
And hasnain should be the 3rd pacer and played in all 3 formats. With dhani as a backup.
 
The worst thing is that once this torture ends the “solution” from management will be to bring back Riaz

Dahani and M Wasim look more reliable than this trash. This guy has zero control once batsmen line him up. Zero intelligence or skills other than odd yorker he has no skills.
 
The annoying thing is that there’s much better bowlers than Rauf who don’t get picked only because of the fact they don’t bowl 90+. Our obsession with pace is cancerous
 
When he himself can't control the way he bowls you know there's nothing any coach, be it it the head coach or bowling coach can do anything.

He's mentally shattered, and I say that with all empathy.

But his skill level isn't that of a top-class bowler.

He's not shown his early PSL promise, and he's in fact gone backwards since he debut season.

I've rarely seen him bowl a yorker to the level he did, and even when he tried to the yorkers are poorly directed.

It's a shame when a player comes out and says stuff like(pharaphase) The way I've recently bowled I don't deserve to play for Pakistan'.

And yet of genius coaches think they need to prolong a players negative mindset by continue to play him.

He was rushed into the national team without coming through the domestic system.He must play domestic cricket and learn to take wickets without giving too many runs.If he does not perform in domestic cricket than drop him.
 
One can only laugh at those who rated him, or still rate him. It clearly shows that they know nothing about cricket.
 
He seems to lack or forget what the exact plan is to each batsman and indeed overlooks their hitting zones and strengths.
 
There got to be many better bowlers than him in Pakistan's domestic cricket or at Lahore or any big city's club level.

Rahat Ali would do a better job in T20s and I'm not kidding.
 
We need to realise that there is no talent in Pakistan we need to stop hyping every two-bit hack who whacks the ball around in the PSL or takes a couple of wickets. There has been a steady supply of mediocrity of bowlers and batsmen into Pakistan cricket team in the last decade. Next in line to get humiliated is Dahni - who has been hyped up as the next Wasim. Just wait and see!
 
He seems to lack or forget what the exact plan is to each batsman and indeed overlooks their hitting zones and strengths.

He knows that Livingstone absolutely loves that yorker length or half volley length and that golf swing straight down the ground, deep mid on shot is his bread and butter shot is his bread and butter but he still proceeds to feed him that length two matches in a row and get whacked for 4 sixes in a row. Zero brains

Someone like bhumrah would have tried mixing it up, bowling a wide outside the off stump yorker, slower ball bouncer or full blooded yorker on leg stump. Rauf just has zero control and loses the plot after a few bad deliveries. Has to be taken out of his misery and be made to work on his bowling in the nets
 
So I will repeat my question that I have been asking for years about this man.

How many FC seasons has he played and performed in? Same goes for Hasnain and Dhani and /add name here/
 
He seems to lack or forget what the exact plan is to each batsman and indeed overlooks their hitting zones and strengths.

he is worst form of Mohammad Sami, this is the best i can describe. i am being generous here. He has been absolutely pathetic with no brain at all
 
The six that LivingStone hit him, has to be the longest six in terms of record. That was a baseball swing and Rauf fed it directly in his arc.
 
it basically went out of the roof in front and onto the football field next to the ground.Lot of people on social media saying they have seen the biggest six ever.

Looks like biggest six of all time,smashed over Headingley stadium.
122M monstrous SIX.

Did he really say that he does not deserve to play for Pakistan?
 
Really hope this or the Windies tour is his last. Must not go to the WC.
 
Pin drop silence when the guy plays well

However, the knives are out in full force when he has a poor game. Its clear that the guy is disliked by the fans and he is going to get deleted for this soon.
 
When did he last play well?

I have been to a couple of games and there are always arms stretched out by other players after the field has been set and he bowls exactly where he shouldn't...

Cant lack his effort in the field etc, does run around like a mad man but I don't think international cricket is for him.

Blasphemous to compare him to Plunkett. Plunkett was a smart bowler who had different variations and had a big part in WT20 and WC too.

He's not disliked, if anything he was hyped up beyond his ability when he first appeared on PSL. Once you see him over a prolonged period, it's clear he struggles with getting his length right, and this is why he is usually expensive.

What hype? He’s just a guy who is a better Yorker/death bowler than what we currently have. If he isn’t going to stick to his strengths then it’s just him not doing his own talent any justice.
 
Optimises everything wrong with our current bowling stocks. Has absolutely no talent but to top it off has no idea about the art of bowling. Every game no matter pitch or opposition it’s just short or back of length nonsense. Doesn’t even learn from his mistakes just the same rubbish day in and day out
 
Haris is a horrible bowler who picks up meaningless wickets yet has no match impact.

Pakistan need a bowler who has a brain and can understand the nature of a wicket.

He has been injured for a while, but maybe if he performs in the next PSL season, someone like Dilbar Hussain can be considered. Someone who can just come in and use his variations to get in and out of overs. It will add some good variety to our attack having someone with good slower-balls and decent yorkers, and above all, someone who is more accurate.

Dilbar Hussain is very talented.He has everything needed for a T20 bowler.

He has pace.He can bowl Yorkers, he has slower balls.He has zip in his bowling.

He can be a very good addition to Pakistan t20i team.

I agree dilbar Hussain will be very good addition.I hope Lahore gives him whole season next year

Most of our "talented youngtas" are just over-hyped, mediocre, braindead bowlers who can bowl "phast" and impress selectors.

Dilbar himself is quite mediocre but he has some skills which can be improved upon. I hope that Multan Sultans pick him in PSL7, because Azhar Mahmood might be able to do some work with him, and so could Wasim Akram.

He needs to perform in a PSL season to show what he's made of. Only then will I consider having him on the team. Hasan needs to replace Rauf urgently, or someone like Mohammad Wasim/Faheem Ashraf/Arshad Iqbal because Haris is terrible.

You will be given a massive rude awakening when the likes of Hassan, Arshad, Akif, Muhammad Wasim JR and even Shahnawaz are going to be fed to the likes of Roy, Butler, Stokes, Livingstone and Moeen etc on their home decks in T20s.

Rauf is simply being misused and he himself is also trying things that are not his strength. The guy simply needs to bowl overs 13-19 in any innings and full/straight at the stumps with the odd slower cutter. I understand that he comes across as quite stupid but there is a match winner in there as long as he gets his head straight.
