Kamran Ghulam impressed everyone with his brilliant batting as the star slammed a century on debut during Day 1 of the second Test match against England.
As Ghulam’s debut century garnered widespread praise, an old video resurfaced on social media, showing an intense moment from the Pakistan Super League (PSL).
In 2022, during a match for Lahore Qalandars, fast bowler Haris Rauf slapped Ghulam after the latter dropped a catch off his bowling. Rauf later made amends by hugging Ghulam during a successful run-out later in the match.
