Pakistan pacer Haris Rauf has had his central contract terminated by the PCB following his refusal to join Pakistan\u2019s Test squad for the Australia tour. The decision comes after a thorough probe and a personal hearing, during which Rauf\u2019s response was deemed unsatisfactory.<\/p>\n
Rauf\u2019s central contract termination is effective from December 1, 2023, and he will not be granted a No Objection Certificate (NOC) to participate in any foreign league until June 30, 2024. The termination marks a significant development in Pakistan cricket, coming on the heels of the team\u2019s whitewash in the Australia tour.<\/p>\n
In another notable announcement, Mohammad Hafeez\u2019s tenure as Director of Pakistan Men\u2019s Cricket Team has ended, concluding his role during Pakistan\u2019s tours of Australia and New Zealand.<\/p>\n
Despite Rauf\u2019s absence from the Test series, where Pakistan suffered a 3-0 whitewash, he returned for the New Zealand T20I series, contributing with seven wickets. Rauf has represented Pakistan in one Test, 37 ODIs, and 66 T20Is, claiming a total of 160 international wickets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
