Rashid Khan Becomes Second Bowler To Pick 500 Wickets In T20s

Rashid Khan, the dynamic wrist spinner continued his domination in T20 format. The spinner took his 500th T20 wicket in the ongoing SA20 league. Rashid was playing against Pretoria Capitals for his team MI Cape Town where he took the wicket of Clyde Fortuin and finished the match with 3 wickets for 16 runs in his 4 overs spell.

Rashid Khan has been a force to reckon with in the franchise circuit where he has the knack of picking up wickets at regular intervals of the match. The spinner recently has been reappointed by the skipper of T20I Afghanistan Cricket Team.

Rashid Khan an Asset

With the added responsibility of captaining the national team, it would be interesting to see whether Rashid’s natural game would be affected. The national team’s next assignment is against Pakistan in March for 3 T20I match series which would be quite fascinating as both the teams have grueling rivalry between them.

Rashid Khan should use himself in 3 spells as he is a partnership breaker. There are chances that the all-rounder may promote himself up the order as Afghanistan’s middle order is a bit fragile. Afghanistan fans would be hoping that Rashid Khan can change the face of cricket in the ICC tournament who haven’t been able to perform according to their credentials as in 2022, we witnessed their downfall.
