5 reasons why Rashid Khan could go on to become the best leg-spinner in world cricket

#5 The IPL lessons

The IPL experience will hold him in good stead for the future

An opportunity to play in the IPL, the biggest T20 league, must have thrilled the 18-year-old, and his successful IPL debut would have done his confidence a world of good.

The experience of playing against world class batsmen could make him a much better bowler. He can win matches for SRH and develop the habit of winning, and if he finds himself in tough situations he will learn ways to deal with such circumstances.

T20 leagues like the IPL are going to make him smarter and tougher as a player. And with the number of games he plays, the right armer will only get better.

The young leg-spinner has got a lot going for him and we could be seeing a lot more of him in the years to come.
