Akif Javed Replaces Injured Haris Rauf in Pakistan’s Tri-Nation ODI Squad.
Left-arm pacer Akif Javed has been added to Pakistan’s squad for the ongoing tri-nation ODI series against South Africa and New Zealand, replacing fast bowler Haris Rauf. Akif, who has a strong record across formats, has taken 169 wickets in 23 first-class, 30 List-A, and 68 T20 matches, including a five-wicket haul. The change comes after Rauf suffered a muscular sprain in his lower chest during Pakistan’s match against New Zealand on Saturday.
