During a walk with his wife, Rauf threatened a fan who allegedly verbally abused him from a distance.

Initially mistaking the abusive fan for being from India, Rauf confronted the group before learning the person was a Pakistani cricket fan.

The incident, captured on video and widely shared on social media, has sparked controversy.

Pakistan's cricket team is scheduled to return home following their disappointing performance in the T20 World Cup 2024 in the USA.

The team faced backlash from fans and the cricketing community after exiting the tournament in the group stage with close defeats against co-hosts USA and arch-rivals India.

Several players, including captain Babar Azam, have opted to head to London instead of returning home, while others will face disgruntled fans upon their arrival in Pakistan.

Here are some of the Twitter reactions:

It is condemnable 😡
It is regrettable 😡
It is shameful 😡
The event is over, fast bowler Haris Rauf was with his wife, so this suspicious person's instigation of Haris is definitely condemnable. This person abused which made anyone angry. This person has showed his family… pic.twitter.com/0uhPVZv0uU
