Hasan Ali Defends Haris Rauf, Who Nearly Hit Pakistan Fan in London
Haris Rauf engaged in a heated exchange with a fan on a London street and almost attacked the fan.

The Pakistan fast bowler Hasan Ali has reacted to the viral video of his teammate Haris Rauf confronting a fan in London, which has been circulating on social media.
In the video, Haris Rauf can be seen walking towards the fan in anger and almost hitting him before other people intervened, stopping and separating them.
From what can be heard in the video, it seems that the fan was asking for a picture with the fast bowler, but since Haris Rauf was with his wife, he declined.
The fan did not take this well and began hurling abuses at Haris Rauf, which triggered the fast bowler, leading him to march towards the fan to hit him.
Taking to social media, Hasan Ali commented:
“I’ve seen a video circulating online about Harry @HarisRauf14 and I urge all my dearest cricket fans to remember that criticism can be constructive without being hurtful. Let’s keep the debate respectful and considerate of the players’ families. Let’s promote love, peace, and respect for the GAME. We all want Pakistan cricket to rise, love you all.”
Meanwhile, Haris Rauf himself issued a clarification after the incident, stating that he is open to criticism and feedback from the fans, but he will not tolerate any abuse directed towards his family.
