Sachin Tendulkar, who has enchanted a country of more than one billion people with his mesmerizing batting, has been regarded as the best batsman in the world after Sir Donald Bradman. The God of Indian cricket has played 24 years of International Cricket owning most of the cricketing records.

Rashid Khan has dominated all the T20 leagues in the world since his debut in 2015. It is fair to call him the best T20 bowler in the world at the moment. Even the legendary Tendulkar has called Rashid the best spinner in the world.

While the legend retired in 2012, Afghanistan spinner made his debut in 2015. Sachin, who dominated the world-class spinners like Shane Warne, Saqlain Mushtaq, would have loved playing the young spinner. Even Rashid would have relished bowling against the best in the business.

Unfortunately, both these cricketers played in two different generations. What a grand treat we have missed by a span of three years!
