After 68 matches in the T20I format, the 23-year-old leg-spinner has had an impressive T20I career thus far, averaging 13.73 and a 6.16 economy rate. In T20Is, he has six hauls of four or more wickets, which is also tied for most in the male sport.
Following Mujeeb ur Rahman’s excellent three-wicket haul, Rashid’s performance helped Afghanistan reduce Bangladesh to 127/7 in 20 overs.
Even yet, Afghanistan needed an amazing 17-ball 43 from Najibullah Zadran to secure a victory, cement their position at the top of Group B for the Asia Cup 2022, and guarantee progression to the next round.
