Rashid Khan had an ordinary outing against Bangladesh on Saturday (October 7) during Afghanistan’s World Cup 2023 opener at HPCA Stadium, Dharamsala. The ace leg-spinner conceded 42 runs off his first eight overs without taking any wickets in a game where Bangladesh were chasing a paltry 157.

In this fixture, the battle between Rashid and Miraz was delightful to watch for spectators. Firstly, Miraz removed Rashid earlier in the innings, so how Miraz handled Rashid's spin was highly anticipated.

The Bangladeshi all-rounder did not disappoint, as he kept hitting boundaries after boundaries against the star spinner. Among them, the one cut he hit during the 28th over of Bangladesh’s innings made headlines.

It was a flatter delivery by Rashid, who bowled on off-stump to Mehidy. The Bangladeshi all-rounder was prepared for it, going to backfoot before cutting it past the backward point fielder for a glorious four. The fielder had no chance to stop it, as the shot was perfectly placed.

Rashid was in complete disbelief after the shot by Mehidy, who had been throughly dominating since he came in the middle at No. 4.

At the time of writng, Bangladesh are 137/3 in 31.1 overs, with Mehidy Hasan Miraz falling after a well-made 57 off 73 balls.
