Not IPL but this match made Rashid Khan a star overnight; see video
Rashid Khan has been the sensation people have been witnessing this year. The bowling genius from Afghanistan has troubled the best of the opposition's batting line up. In February 2017, he was bought by Sunrisers Hyderabad for the 2017 Indian Premier League (IPL) for 4 crores. He was also amongst the two first-ever Afghan players to be selected for the IPL.
Here is the video of Rashid Khan, in the match against West Indies when he took 7 wickets off just 18 balls.
Sachin Tendulkar is known for not getting into the 'who's the best' debate but the legendary Indian batsman has gone on record to say that Rashid Khan is the best T20 bowler in the world. He has labelled that the magical spinner from Afghanistan, the best spinner in the shortest format of the game.
Indian batting legend Sachin Tendulkar has also come out in open to hail the Afghan spinner and his bowling skills. He named Rashid the best bowler in the shortest format of the game.
Sachin Tendulkar tweeted that “Always felt @rashidkhan_19 was a good spinner but now I wouldn’t hesitate in saying he is the best spinner in the world in this format. Mind you, he’s got some batting skills as well. Great guy.”
