Haris is considered among the top pacers of Team Green, since making his debut, he produced multiple match-winning spells. The speedster got 72 T20I wickets and 30 ODIs wickets under his belt.
Earlier, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan police picked Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah as the Goodwill Ambassadors of the police force in a bid to promote a softer image of the law enforcers and bridge the trust deficit between the cops and the masses.
