Shaheen Shah Afridi and Haris Rauf, two of the most destructive bowlers in world cricket, are representing Welsh Fire in The Hundred. The duo, signed by coach Mike Hussey during the draft in March, have made an immediate impact, helping Fire secure a victory against Manchester Originals. Shaheen and Rauf have played in both games so far, taking a total of six wickets between them. They are now looking forward to playing in front of a sell-out crowd at The Kia Oval. In this shorter format, every ball is crucial, and both bowlers are determined to make an impact. They have a successful history together, having played for Pakistan and helped Lahore Qalandars win back-to-back PSL titles. Now they are focused on revitalizing a struggling franchise alongside Hussey. Welsh Fire had a tough season last year, failing to win a single game. With Shaheen and Rauf’s presence in the team, ticket sales have risen, and fans are excited to see them perform both on and off the field. For Shaheen, it has been a year of mixed fortunes since suffering a knee injury in the T20 World Cup final. However, since his return, he has had impressive performances, leading his Lahore franchise to PSL glory and taking his 100th Test wicket. Shaheen still sees Test cricket as the pinnacle of the game and is inspired by players like Stuart Broad. As for Rauf, he shares Shaheen’s love for fast bowling and hopes to inspire young fans to follow in their footsteps. Both bowlers are excited to showcase their skills and provide entertainment in The Hundred.
