The San Francisco Unicorns have been dealt a significant blow before the 2025 Major League Cricket (MLC) playoffs, with star pacer Haris Rauf being out for the rest of the tournament with a Grade 1 hamstring injury.

The 31-year-old pacer developed the injury when the Unicorns won over the Texas Super Kings in their recent match. Rauf was replaced from the game and an MRI test confirmed the strain. The medical staff of the franchise consulted the medical director of the league and subsequently kept him out of the playoffs.

Rauf has been one of the top performers in the tournament this year. He is currently the top wicket-taker in the MLC 2025 with 17 wickets from eight games, taking several match-winning spells for the Unicorns. His loss is a major setback as the team heads into the business end of the tournament.

Confirming the news on social media, the Unicorns tweeted: “We’re with you, Haris. The San Francisco Unicorns can confirm Haris Rauf will miss the remainder of #MLC2025 with a hamstring injury, with New Zealand pace bowler Ben Lister to replace him, effective immediately.”

Ben Lister Replaces Injured Rauf as Unicorns Eye Playoff Berth

The franchise has appointed Ben Lister as a replacement for Rauf for the rest of the tournament. Lister, a 29-year-old left-arm New Zealand pacer, has the much-needed international experience, having represented his country in 12 T20Is. Lister is renowned for his control of the new ball and death-over variations. He has been with the team for the last fortnight training with the team and is match-fit.

The timing of the injury is concerning for Pakistan supporters too, since Rauf is also set to miss the T20I series against Bangladesh, from July 20 in Dhaka. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has still not made an official announcement regarding his rehabilitation schedule.

The Unicorns will face the LA Knight Riders in their last league-stage encounter on July 6 at Broward County Stadium. They will gain a top-two standing and a direct qualification to the Qualifier with a victory. But now, they have to tackle that challenge without their leading wicket-taker.

Ranjane struck 39 off 14 balls, while Ferreira hammered 37 off just 9, guiding Texas to a daunting total of 87/2.

In reply, Washington Freedom struggled to get any momentum during their chase. Glenn Phillips tried to stabilize the innings with an 18 off 11 cameo, but the pressure of the scoreboard was big. Rachin Ravindra and Mitchell Owen were unable to make their starts pay, and Texas bowlers, headed by Nandre Burger (2/12), kept tight lines.

In Match 20 of the 2025 Major League Cricket (MLC) season, the Seattle Orcas registered a stunning run chase to beat the Los Angeles Knight Riders by five wickets at Grand Prairie Stadium, Texas. Though the Knight Riders produced a solid batting performance, Seattle's ferocious chase, spearheaded by Aaron Jones and Shimron Hetmyer, turned out to be the game-changer.

Batting first, Los Angeles Knight Riders gave a good 202/4 in their 20 overs. Andre Russell scored a dominating 65 off 39 balls, ably supported by Rovman Powell (43 off 21) and Saif Badar (41 off 21), who added a late flourish.

In response, Orcas pursued the target in 19.5 overs, with Aaron Jones hammering 73 from 38 and Shimron Hetmyer blasting 64 off 26.
