Haris Rauf Sets Unwanted World Cup Of Conceding Most Runs In Single Edition Of World Cup

Pakistan did not have a good outing in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 as they failed to secure a place in the semis in this edition of the tournament. One of the major reason was their pace attack, touted as one of their strengths, did not perform as well as they were performing in the build up to the tournament. (IMAGE CREDIT: Getty)

Haris Rauf one of their main weapons with the ball in hand had a tournament to forget and created an unwanted record. The right-arm pacer became the first Pakistan bowler to concede in excess of 500 runs in a single World Cup edition. (IMAGE CREDIT: Getty)

Rauf's fellow Pakistani pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi- might have taken more wickets but wasn't miserly with the ball either and gave away 481 runs in this edition of the tournament. (IMAGE CREDIT: Getty)
