Pakistan pacer Haris Rauf has been roped by Rangpur Riders for the upcoming edition of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL).
According to reports, Rangpur are also in talks with Shoaib Malik from Pakistan and all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai from Afghanistan.
The Pakistan Cricket Board and Cricket West Indies have agreed to postpone the three-match T20I series, which was due to take place in January 2023 in Pakistan, to the first quarter of 2024, which helped BPL franchises to grab other big names from Pakistan.
Meanwhile, another franchise Sylhet Strikers has already signed three Sri Lankan stars Kamindu Mendis, Dhananjaya de Silva, and Thisara Perera, along with former Pakistani pacer Mohammad Amir.
Sylhet has also named veteran Mashrafe bin Mortaza as their icon player for the biggest T20 tournament of the country.
The 43-day long BPL will get underway on January 5 next year with the grand finale scheduled for February 16.
