Melbourne Stars fast bowler Haris Rauf has been the talk of the Big Bash League (BBL) as he garnered attention with his lethal pace and wicket-taking ability but lately the bowler has been subjected to criticism due to his rather controversial celebration.
Rauf, a product of Pakistan Super League (PSL) franchise Lahore Qalandars' talent programme, has emerged as a far more productive bowler in the BBL, thanks to a correction in his previously flawed bowling style.
The express pacer has taken the BBL by storm, picking up 10 wickets in just three matches, including a five-for.
The Rawalpindi-born has, however, caught some flak because of his over exuberant celebration, which concludes with a cut-throat gesture.
Some critics on Twitter are not taking the celebration lightly, and calling for Rauf to discontinue the post-wicket show.
Even former Australian rugby league footballer Darryl Brohman could not hold back and deemed Rauf's celebration as "over the top".
