#9 Afghanistan - Rashid Khan

Cricket in Afghanistan has been on the rise and in very little time they've managed to trouble big nations in major tournaments. A lot of credit for this goes to their talented bowler, Rashid Khan. He is their go-to man, to take Afghanistan out of a crisis. You need a wicket, you throw the ball to him, you need to finish off a game with the bat, you send Rashid in to play those cameos, and when you need to inspire the team on the field, look no further ahead of this young man.
Rashid is a live wire on the field and has gone on to prove this playing in different T20 leagues around the world. He has got a safe pair of hands and despite being small in size, he can crank it up when it comes to throwing from the deep.
