Shadab Khan also extended his warm wishes, expressing his hopes for the child’s health, happiness, and prosperity. “May Allah bless the little one and the family,” he wrote.
Although Haris Rauf has not yet made a public statement about the birth of his son, his teammates have been celebrating the joyful occasion and sharing their best wishes for the new parents.
Haris Rauf married Muzna Masood Malik in December 2022 in an intimate ceremony in Islamabad. Muzna, who is a model by profession, has maintained a relatively private life with Haris. The birth of their son marks an exciting new chapter in their journey together.
The couple hosted their grand wedding reception in December 2023, attended by close friends and family.
Haris Rauf’s cricketing journey began with tape-ball cricket before he gained recognition when he was selected by the Lahore Qalandars for the Pakistan Super League (PSL). His performances in domestic and franchise cricket paved the way for his selection in international leagues, including the Melbourne Stars in Australia’s Big Bash League (BBL).
He made his T20I debut for Pakistan in 2020 and has since become a crucial part of the national team. Rauf has claimed 85 wickets in 48 one-day internationals and 110 wickets in 79 T20 internationals, establishing himself as a key fast bowler for Pakistan.
