Talking about the Afghanistan’s sensational bowler, Rashid Khan has made the tournament very tough for the top batsmen. He has become the most crucial players of Sunrisers Hyderabad.His trademark Khan googlies have made the top batsmen run for money.
After the match, Bhavneshwar Kumar interviewed Rashid Khan and very jokingly asked him to not bowl the way he is doint at the IPL in the during India-Afghan test. He said:

Rashid Khan asserted a smile and said : “Inshallah.”
Talking about the AB De Villiers he took in the last match, he said:
“Everyone knows he (De Villiers) is a game-changer. The plan was to bowl to him in the good length area and mix it up between leg-spin, straight one and the wrong one. I set him up with two-three legspinners and then the wrong one. That was the plan. It was a big wicket. I got a lot of confidence from that wicket,”
Well, we just can’t wait for the historic battle to happen in June between both the countries.
