The Seattle Orcas batter Shehan Jayasuriya played an outstanding ramp shot against the Pakistan pacer Haris Rauf, who is representing San Francisco Unicorns in the ongoing Major League Cricket (MLC) 2024. 

Chasing a modest 166 for victory, the Orcas got off to a flying start, reaching 54 without loss at the end of the powerplay. Shehan Jayasuriya was looking in a great touch as he took on the captain of San Francisco Pat Cummins and Haris Rauf. 

The Sri Lankan batter picked sixth over, bowled by Pakistan pacer battery Haris Rauf to take on the opposition and put them under pressure. Rauf started with a dot ball, but the second delivery was a fiery one, angling inwards from around the wicket. 

Unfazed, Jayasuriya anticipated the short ball and went for a risky ramp shot. He mistimed the connection slightly, getting a leading edge that flew over the keeper’s head towards third-man for a streaky four.
