Haris Rauf's cut-throat celebration sparks controversy in Big Bash League

[Mark-x]

Melbourne Stars fast bowler Haris Rauf has been turning heads in the ongoing Big Bash League (BBL) with his lethal pace and wicket-taking ability but lately also because of 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.
