A cricketing hero back home for the people of Afghanistan, Rashid Khan has done more good than anybody to inspire a generation of cricketers to take up the sport.

At such a young age in his career, the leg-spinner has already become a household name in the Afghanistan cricket. Afghanistan should remain indebted for what he has done for the development of their cricket to allow them to be a force to reckon with in the International cricket.

The year 2019 will be a new challenge for Afghanistan as they will be all set to feature in the World cup for the second consecutive time in their cricket history. As a result, the expectations will be even higher from a senior player of Rashid's stature to lead the side during their difficult phases.

One of the best spinners from the current lot, Rashid will hold the key for the Afghans when they take the field in the World cup to not only spring surprises but also as a major threat to other teams.
