It is difficult for Afghanistan’s regular captain Rashid Khan to play in the T20 series against India.
Afghanistan’s regular T20 captain Rashid Khan is a part of this squad but it seems very difficult for him to play in the T20 series. This is because he has recently undergone back surgery and that is why he will hardly be seen playing in the upcoming series.
ACB said in its statement, ‘Rashid Khan, who is the regular T20 captain of Afghanistan, has been included in the team but due to not fully recovering from the back injury, he will not be seen playing in the upcoming series. ‘
Here is the Afghanistan team:
Ibrahim Zadran (captain), Rehmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Ikram Alikhil (wk), Hazratullah Zazai, Rahmat Shah, Najibullah Zadran, Mohammad Nabi, Karim Janat, Azmaullah Umarzai, Sharafuddin Ashraf, Mujeeb ur Rehman, Fazalhaq Farooqui, Farid Ahmed, Naveen Ul Haq, Noor Ahmed, Mohammad Saleem, Qais Ahmed, Gulbadin Naib and Rashid Khan.
