Haris Rauf struck twice during the crucial stages of the game to take the match away from Multan Sultans. He dismissed dangerous Rilee Rossouw thanks to David Wiese who took an exceptional catch and then got Afridi out the very next ball with an in-swinging yorker, sending him back to the pavilion on a golden duck.
I am usually much more aggressive after taking a wicket but when I dismissed Shahid bhai yesterday, it was different, he is a Pakistani superstar. He has performed exceptionally and won many games for Pakistan. So it was important that I show him some respect.
