The ICC on Tuesday banned Pakistan fast bowler Haris Rauf for two matches for violating its code of conduct during Twenty20 games against India in the Asia Cup. The ban means Rauf will be eligible only for the third game of the ODI series against South Africa at Faisalabad on Saturday.

Rauf copped two financial penalties of 30 percent each for two separate incidents during matches against India, leading to a two-match ban in the upcoming ODI series against South Africa on November 4

The hosts will look to bounce back after a disappointing outing in the opening game, where a second-string South African side outplayed them in all departments to claim a convincing 55-run win.

Shaheen Shah Afridi's Pakistan team will look to build on the T20I success and aim to start the three-match one-day series against South Africa at Iqbal Stadium in Faisalabad on Tuesday on a winning note.

Pakistan fast bowler Haris Rauf has received a two-match suspension for breaching the ICC's code of conduct during matches against India at the Asia Cup in September, the governing body said on Tuesday.

On paper, this should have been Shaheen Afridi’s night. New role, home crowd, first men’s international in Faisalabad in 17 years, and South Africa turning up severely under strength. Instead, his first outing as Pakistan’s ODI captain began with a strangely muted performance with the new ball and a supporting role in a bowling effort driven by others.

Haris Rauf received a two-match ban and a 30% fine for inappropriate gestures during the Asia Cup along with four demerit points. The pacer will miss the ODI series against South Africa.
