Rashid Khan is generally a cool and calm character on the field, however, during one moment in the Champions Trophy clash against South Africa, Rashid lost his cool and gave a stare to his teammate, Noor Ahmad. Noor's lazy fielding efforts didn't go well with the senior player, Rashid Khan.

Afghanistan were put into field first and South Africa were off to a solid start, courtesy of Ryan Rickelton, who looked compact and was at his best against the Afghan bowlers who lacked the cutting-edge in front of the Proteas batters.

The South African batters frustrated Afghanistan as their bowlers searched for the wickets. In one of the overs delivered by Rashid Khan, Noor made a mess of a simple fielding and it made Rashid angry on him.

Rashid bowled a leg break on the middle and leg to Rickelton who flicked it to the right of Noor Ahmad who put in a dive, but the ball slipped away as the batters ran a second run. This infuriated Rashid who stared at the fielder with an angry look.

Rickelton closing in on a century

Ryan Rickelton looked threatening right from ball one and played a commanding innings on a not so easy surface. After the early loss of de Zorzi, he forged a partnership alongside captain Temba Bavuma and took the Proteas to a strong position as he aim to reach his maiden ODI century.

Apart from Rickelton's brilliance, South Africa were also blessed with the guile of Bavuma, who scored a gritty 76-ball 58.
