Big-hitting Pakistan batsman Mohammad Haris is not fussed where he bats as he is confident he can perform at any position.
Haris has been moved up and down the batting order in his career, but he simply wants to continue being part of the national team.
The 24-year-old recently represented the Peshawar Zalmi in the 2025 Pakistan Super League (PSL) and scored 247 runs in 10 matches, which included a top score of 87, at an average of 27.44 and a strike-rate of 148.79.
He continued to impress during Pakistan’s three-match T20I series against Bangladesh in Lahore as he smashed 179 runs, which included a career-best knock of 107 not out, at an average of 89.50 and a strike-rate of 201.12.
Unfortunately, he could not maintain his red-hot form during the tour of Bangladesh as he only made nine runs in three T20Is at an average of three and a strike-rate of 50.
“Batting number is crucial for any player, but I am always ready to play at any position. I have no issue batting at various spots because my main goal is to perform for the team regardless of the role,” Haris was quoted as saying by A Sports.
Pakistan are now touring the West Indies for three T20Is and three ODIs.
Haris only faced one ball in the 1st T20I, which he hit for six as the men in green went on to win by 14 runs.
The 2nd T20I will be held on August 3 in Lauderhill.
