Rashid Khan In A Live Chat On Instagram Chat With His Indian Counterpart Yuzvendra Chahal Revals The Name Of Toughest Indian Batsman To Bowl:
Always bowl the ball, blame the batsmen for variations. That’s the strategy of Afghanistan star Rashid Khan while bowling to big-hitters particularly from West Indies, the leg-spinner revealed his Indian counterpart Yuzvendra Chahal during an Instagram chat.
“Never pitch the ball up; they ‘d quickly clear boundaries. I’m going to bowl them a bit distance. I ‘m going to get them on your back foot. They have to be lost, they have to bowl them, leg spinners to mix them up. I never bowl them to the full. You need to bowl a length back, “the former captain of Afghanistan said.”He hit three sixes in a row, and he mistimed in the fourth ball but only to be dropped in a low mid wicket,” Rashid told Chahal. “Our bowler looked powerless and put his hands on his shoulders, screaming in Pashto, ‘Why am I taking him out now? ”
Rashid Reveals The Names Of His Role Models:
Rashid added that while growing up as an aspiring cricketer he followed fast leg-spinners like Anil Kumble and Shahid Afridi.
“I used to follow Anil Kumble, Shahid Afridi a lot. I always liked bowling at a fast pace. I have a quick run up also,” he said.
On India’s wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant, Rashid further raised high praise, calling him a formidable opponent. Rashid recognised Pant for his big-hitting skills, even before the Indian entered the limelight. During the 2015 Under-19 tri-series, the duo had a face-off on second campus ground at Jadavpur University in Kolkata, ahead of the 2016 Under-19 World Cup in Bangladesh.
“He ‘s got every shot in the book and he’s a very tough batsman to bowl to. I remember bowling him in the U-19 Tri-series at a ground in Kolkata, “Rashid said, while praising Pant.
“He hit three sixes in a row, and he mistimed in the fourth ball but only to be dropped in a low midwicket,” Rashid told Chahal. “Our bowler looked powerless and put his hands on his shoulders, screaming in Pashto, ‘Why am I taking him out now? ”
