The second match of the 3-match Test series between Pakistan and England is being played in Multan. Kamran Ghulam made his debut for Pakistan in this match. He was given an opportunity after the poor performance of the team’s veteran batsman Babar Azam and he made good use of it. In fact, when he came to bat, his team had lost 2 wickets for just 19 runs. Under this pressure, he not only handled the innings but also created history by scoring a century on Test debut. Meanwhile, a video of him being slapped in a live match is going viral. What is the truth of this slap after all? Tell us.
Was Kamran really slapped?
Kamran Ghulam is currently the talk of the town after scoring a century. An old video of Pakistan Super League match is going viral. After sharing this video, fans are claiming that Haris Rauf slapped Kamran Ghulam during the live match. Shaheen Afridi, who was out of the second Test, was also present there. All these players were playing for Lahore Qalandar, but none did anything. The franchisee also did not take any action. However, this is not entirely true.
Many are giving credit to Lahore Qalandars for Kamran Ghulam.

In fact, Haris Rauf can be clearly seen in the video celebrating the aggression after getting out. Meanwhile, the rest of the team also reach him. Kamran Ghulam also comes in front of him and Haris touches Kamran’s cheek, but it is only a celebration. Instead of getting angry at this, Kamran pats Haris on his chest again and praises him.
Kamran Ghulam created history
Kamran Ghulam was brought in to replace the out-of-form Babar Azam. He scored a century in his debut Test. After 5 years, a batsman from Pakistan has achieved the feat of scoring a century on his debut Test. Not only that, he became the first Pakistani player to score a century on debut Test against England. Apart from this, Kamran is the 11th player from Pakistan to achieve this feat. At the same time, after 23 years, no batsman has scored a century on debut Test at Multan grounds.
