Rumman Raees Leaves Islamabad United Due to Sister's Passing
With Rumman Raees temporarily leaving the team, Islamabad United's upcoming matches will be a test of their strength and resilience, but the team's current momentum and leadership are expected to carry them forward, as they continue to compete in PSL 10.
Rumman Raees, the fast bowling consultant for Islamabad United, has temporarily left the team following the tragic passing of his sister, and will miss the upcoming match against Multan Sultans on April 23.
Islamabad United has been performing exceptionally well in PSL 10, remaining undefeated with 8 points after winning all four of their matches. Their latest victory was against Karachi Kings, where they successfully chased a total of 129 runs, losing only three wickets with 17 balls to spare. The team's strong performance can be attributed to their new opening pair, Sahibzada Farhan and Azam Khan, as well as captain Shadab Khan's crucial contributions, including his 47-run score in the match against Karachi Kings.
Rumman Raees shared the news of his sister's passing on social media, asking for prayers and support during this difficult time. While he will miss the match against Multan Sultans, it is possible that he may rejoin the team ahead of their game against Lahore Qalandars on April 30. Islamabad United's leadership and players have likely been affected by Raees' temporary departure, but the team's strong momentum and team spirit are expected to carry them through the upcoming matches.
The Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2025 has been an exciting tournament so far, with Islamabad United's undefeated streak making them a strong contender for the championship title. As the team navigates the challenges of the tournament, they will undoubtedly be keeping Rumman Raees and his family in their thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
