Rashid Khan is widely regarded as the best spinner in the world in limited overs cricket

A fan-favourite in all parts of the world, Rashid Khan is widely regarded as the best spinner in the world in limited overs cricket.

He is the leading wicket-taker in ODIs in 2018, with 38 wickets in 15 innings, and that too at a marvelous economy of 3.95.

Granted, a majority of his matches have come against associate nations and traditionally weaker teams; however, even in this year's IPL, against the best players in the world, Rashid put in extremely good performances.

In fact, he was regarded as the bowler of the tournament by many experts. Rashid Khan's lethal bowling, coupled with his handy batting and ability on the field, makes him one of the best-limited overs players in the world and certainly the key player to watch out for from Afghanistan.
