Rashid Khan is one of the finest cricketers of the current generation and has been a match winner for both his country and franchises around the world. He is currently playing for Afghanistan in a crucial Champions Trophy 2025 match and with semifinal qualifcation on line, a lot is expected from him.

Rashid Khan Fails To Carry On His Positive Start

His primary duty is to deliver with the ball, but he is a handy batter too. So, when Afghanistan were seven down at the score of 199, they needed Rashid Khan to bat till the end and take their team to a competitive score. He smashed two boundaries in his short stint of 19 runs, but could not carry it on and eventually Ben Dwarshuis got the better of him in the 46th over.

It was the short delivery, outside off, angling across the right-hander. Rashid Khan went for a pull shot, but the angle of the ball, did not go in his favour and it caught the top edge of the blade. The ball went high in the air between the mid on and the long on region and Glenn Maxwell took a fine catch running forward.

Rashid Khan's wicket was a big blow to Afghanistan and the fans assembled at the stadium looked shell shocked. It seemed like they would crumble around 230. However, Azmatullah Omarzai had no intentions to back down and kept hitting his shots and smashed Aussies all over the park to take his side to a competitive total of 273 wit his 67 off 63 balls.
