Haris also scored eight runs in the final against England. Wahab Riaz said Haris has lifted the whole Pakistan team, and he is a major boost for the team.

“He’s lifted the whole Pakistan team,” said Wahab Riaz, as quoted by Saj Sadiq.

 Even though Haris has not played for Pakistan since the ICC event, Wahab praised him for consistently making quick runs.

 The two players will now play for the Peshawar Zalmi in the Pakistan Super League (PSL), which will take place from February 13 to March 19 in Karachi, Lahore, Multan, and Rawalpindi.
