The second Super Four fixture of the Men’s Asia Cup 2025, which was played between India and Pakistan at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai on September 21, saw the Men in Blue continue their domination. Coming into the match after beating Pakistan by seven-wicket margin in the group stage, on Sunday, they once again handed Pakistan a six-wicket drubbing, courtesy a brilliant 100-plus runs partnership at the top by Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill.
While the match wasn’t just a normal game of cricket as it once again was marred with several controversies. Although, the players from both sides had some heated moments, Haris Rauf also invited massive outrage with his gestures. The moment came while the Pakistan pacer was fielding at the boundary rope and fans invited him with ‘Kohli, Kohli’ chants.
Haris Rauf’s controversial 6-0 gesture leaves internet buzzing; video goes viral
In the videos making rounds on social media, Rauf was spotted taunting Indian fans with the controversial 6-0 gesture as he was patrolling on the boundary. Followed by signaling 6-0, Rauf also gestured at the fall of airplanes, once again bringing Pakistan's baseless claims of downing six Indian fighter jets during the four-day scuffle after Operation Sindoor.

However, the Pakistan pacer hasn’t opened up on his antics yet, but his performance on the field, which saw him pick two wickets in his four-over spell was overshadowed by the blistering batting innings of the Indian openers - Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill. Rauf finished with the figures of 2/26 at an economy of 6.50.
