Well, the selfie could be one to cherish but it’s come at a cost.

The fan who took the selfie with bowler Haris Rauf was left in disbelief on knowing that cricketer had failed his Covid-19 test. Pace bowler Haris Rauf had tested positive for Covid-19 on two continuous tests.

It was only then that he learnt that Rauf was not part of the squad because he had tested positive.
