India's official statement on Haris Rauf's controversial gestures during the Asia Cup game
However, Haris Rauf, who was their most economical as well as successful bowler, made some dubious hand gestures. The gestures were meant to irk Indian fans, as he showed the crash of fighter jets, reigniting the false claim that Pakistan had shot down 6 fighter jets of the Indian Air Force.
"Let me just say, the amount of pressure that's been heaped on the players because of the situation, it's very difficult to control their behaviour. I did see some of the things Haris did, and, you know, that's not our concern. Like I said earlier, we're really proud of how the guys carried themselves, you know, they were on fire with their bats on the field. You know, how the teams showed their ambitions."
"Some of the words during the game from the Pakistan bowling unit, but I thought the guys stuck really well to the task of getting the job done and winning the game," he added.
