Former Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has compared Gujarat Titans vice-captain Rashid Khan with England’s Test captain Ben Stokes. In fact, the Afghanistan star played an important role in helping Gujarat win the last ball match against Rajasthan in the IPL 2024 match in Jaipur. In this match, he performed brilliantly with the ball as well as the bat.
Rashid Khan first bowled a brilliant spell to dismiss Jos Buttler cheaply and then played the role of a finisher, scoring 24 runs in 11 balls, giving his team a sensational win. Let us tell you that this was Gujarat’s third win this season while the team has also lost three matches. This was Rajasthan’s first defeat this season.
Sunil Gavaskar gave a big statement regarding Rashid Khan
Sunil Gavaskar said in the Star Sports show, “Rashid takes wickets as usual and does his job when needed with the bat. This is why every franchise in the world wants to buy him. They want him because they see his commitment, batting, bowling, fielding. Look at the way he gives his all while fielding. Bowlers shy away from diving while fielding but this is not the case with Rashid. Rashid wants to give 100 percent to the team.”
