Haris uploaded pictures from the event and thanked the Islamabad police for selecting him as a goodwill ambassador. The ability to wear the same uniform as our heroes who gave their lives in the line of duty, he said, was an even bigger honour.

One of Team Green’s top pacers, Haris has produced multiple spells that have helped his team win games since his debut. Between the two formats, the fast bowler grabbed 30 ODI and 72 T20I wickets.
In an effort to portray a softer image of law enforcement and close the trust gap between the police and the general public, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan police chose Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah as their Goodwill Ambassadors.
