The Melbourne Stars still expect Haris Rauf to play for them in the Big Bash League despite the explosive Pakistan quick's reported issues in being cleared to play in Australia.
After missing the last edition of the BBL, Rauf has committed to the Stars for this campaign after making himself unavailable for Pakistan's Test tour of Australia.
Rauf's decision to join the Stars instead of playing red-ball cricket incensed Pakistan authorities, with newly appointed chief selector Wahab Riaz slamming the move.
