Let us tell you that during the ongoing T20 World Cup, Rashid Khan was quoted as saying by ESPN Cricinfo – For some time now, we have been struggling a bit in batting, earlier our bowlers used to help the team win the match.
Then we got young batsmen, especially from Under-19 cricket, and then they made it to the national team. They have worked hard and got the chance to play for Afghanistan at a very young age. The young players played in leagues around the world and then kept improving.
Rashid further said- I think we have such a batting line-up in the ongoing T20 World Cup that we can say that if there are 200 runs on the board, it will be chased. There is a lot of skill and talent in the team, which we can show on the ground. T20 cricket is completely based on mentality.
