#1 Rashid Khan

The world no.1 T20I bowler will be up to test the batsmen

Sunrisers Hyderabad used the RTM for Rashid Khan at a whopping price of INR 9 crore. The bidding price had to reach that amount owing to his recent performances in the Big Bash League and international cricket. He has played 29 T20Is and bagged 47 wickets at an astounding economy of 5.86.

In the Big Bash League, he represented the Adelaide Strikers. He played 11 matches for them and bagged 18 wickets for a phenomenal economy of 5.66

Rashid came into limelight in the last year's IPL. The Afghan spinner bagged 17 wickets from the 14 matches he played. Being the no.1 T20I bowler, Rashid would be up again to trouble the bowlers with his variations.
