Pakistan pace bowler Haris Rauf believes taking wickets in the middle and death overs in T20 cricket is the toughest thing to do.
He noted that this is his “prime responsibility” in the shortest format, meaning he has the most difficult assignment as a bowler.
Rauf’s most recent international assignment was Pakistan’s three-match ODI series against Australia, where he took four wickets at an average of 26.50.
“My prime responsibility is to take wickets in the middle and death overs, which is the most difficult situation in T20s,” the 32-year-old was quoted as saying by journalist Arfa Feroz Zake on X.
Rauf was not selected for Pakistan’s two-Test tour of the West Indies, which finished as a 1-1 draw.
He also didn’t make the cut for the recently-concluded three-Test series against England, which the men in green lost 3-0.
