The performance of the Pakistan team in the T20 World Cup 2024 was very poor. The team was eliminated in the first round itself. After this, questions started being raised on the team led by Babar Azam. Former Pakistani legends had criticized this team a lot. Even the team coach Gary Kirsten had said that there was no unity in the team. Kirsten had said that he had not seen such an atmosphere anywhere till now. Kirsten’s statement had not calmed down when a video of Haris Rauf went viral, in which he was seen fighting with the fans.
In the video, some fans say something to Rauf. On this, Harris Rauf loses his temper and angrily runs to hit that fan. His wife Muzna Masood also tries to stop him, but Harris gets close to that fan. However, some other people stop Harris from fighting, but the round of statements between Harris and that fan continues. During this argument, Harris says something that angered the Indian fans. Harris says to that fan – He must be an Indian. This is not your India.
Harris’s statement caused controversy. Now Harris has apologized for this statement. Hindustan Times quoted Pakistani news channel ARY as saying that Harris has accepted his mistake. He has accepted that he should not have taken India’s name during the argument. A clip of ARY channel is going viral, in which former Pakistani captain Basit Ali talks about Harris Rauf. He says that Harris should not have taken India’s name. He has done this stupidity. After this, the channel’s anchor Wasim Badami says – Harris has accepted his mistake. I spoke to Harris. He accepted that the person was Pakistani. In the flow, Harris slipped out the Indian word. He said that he should not have done this.
What is the whole matter?
In the video going viral on social media, Rauf is seen walking on the footpath with his wife. During this, he got into a fight with some people present there. It is not clear in the video what the fight between Rauf and those people was about, but it is believed that they were allegedly taunting him for the poor performance of the team. It is seen in the video that Rauf lost his temper and ran after those people. During this, his wife tried a lot to stop Rauf, but Rauf took out his slippers and ran towards the people. However, some people also intervened. In the video, a fan was heard saying, I just wanted a picture.

Harris broke his silence
After the video went viral, Rauf was surrounded by controversy. However, after some time Rauf broke his silence on this controversy and said that if someone tries to drag his family into it, he will not shy away from responding. Breaking his silence on this matter, Rauf posted on social media and said, I thought I would not mention it on social media, but now after the video has come out, I feel that it is necessary to speak. Being a well-known personality, we have no problem with all kinds of reactions from people. They have the right to support us or criticize us, but when it comes to my parents or family, I will not shy away from giving a befitting reply. No matter what profession one is in, he and his family should be respected.
