Afghanistan leg-spinner Rashid Khan is known as the big star of the small country. Since his debut in international cricket, he has taken himself to unique heights by performing consistently.

Rashid Khan has become a regular member of various franchise leagues such as IPL, Big Bash, BPL, PSL, CPL, and many other tournaments due to his regular performance in the national team.

Rashid Khan is captaining the MI Cape Town team in the ongoing franchise league of South Africa. He took 8 wickets in seven matches in the tournament.

With these 8 wickets, the star leg-spinner became the second bowler in T20 to take 500 wickets in just 8 years. He is now 24 years old. If he can take 500 wickets in the next 8 years, then at the age of 32, he will touch the milestone of 1000 wickets in T20.

Former India cricketer and analyst Aakash Chopra tweeted, “What an incredible achievement to take 500 T20 wickets! I can safely say that Rashid Khan will be the first bowler to take 1000 wickets in T20. ’
