Played U19's but thus far has been behind Kyle Gardiner and Liam O'Connor in past couple of years as the developing leggie on a rookie contract.

Can already see Rashid Khan ripping us a new one on a spinning wicket in India.
Rashid leading the way with bat and ball.
Yeah every time I see his age I can't believe how good he is already. Feels like he's been around for a fair while as well.If his age is legitimate (about a week away from his 21st birthday), he'd have to be one of the most naturally talented all-round cricketers we've ever seen, and that's without great coaching, fitness, etc., and perhaps years away from even entering his prime, too.
Limitless potential to what Rashid could achieve, both in the game and as a symbol of hope and achievement for his country.
It would be interesting to speak to some Afghani people (both here in Australia, and over there), to see what cricket and Rashid means to them right now.
I'd be shocked if Rashid was under the age of 30 to be honest.
It’s only day 4There is an extra 20 minutes of play, but surely Afghanistan have to declare on the overnight score and avoid wasting ten minutes on the change of innings.
You're right. For some reason I must have been thinking it was one of those horrid four day Tests.It’s only day 4
