CWC 2019: One World Cup debutant from each team who can make an impact

10. Afghanistan- Rashid Khan

Time for Rashid Khan to make a mark in international cricket.

Rashid Khan is already a star in world cricket. With his penetrative leg-spin, he has troubled the best of batsmen in different T20 leagues around the world. World Cup 2019 will be Rashid's first ever ICC tournament. The fate of his team will largely depend on his performance with the ball. It will be interesting to see if Rashid can hold his nerves at a stage he has never played before. Experience of playing with international stars in those T20 leagues will surely help his way.

Going by numbers, Rashid Khan holds the best bowling average in ODI cricket history with a cut-off of 100 wickets. 123 ODI wickets in 54 innings, that have come at an astonishing average of 15 and an unbelievable strike rate of 23, is simply awesome stuff from Rashid Khan. Not to forget that he has been accurate in his bowling as well, with an economy rate of 3.90. Rashid, assisted by Mohammad Nabi and Mujeeb-ur-Rahman will be crucial in the success of the Afghanistan team.
