Because of this Rashid Khan will not play BBL It is worth noting that before the start of the 2023 Big Bash League season, Rashid Khan had decided not to play in the BBL, boycotting it, as Cricket Australia had refused to play bilateral series due to the Taliban’s treatment of women in the sport in Afghanistan. However, after this Rashid Khan changed his mind and expressed his desire to play in the tournament, but later he could not play due to injury. So Australian fans were waiting for Rashid’s return in the upcoming BBL season, but now he has not registered himself for this tournament. On the other hand, after this decision of Rashid, it is believed that he is opposing Cricket Australia. However, according to news agency AAP, the officials have no problem with his views and he will be welcomed in the country whenever he wants to play. They also believe that Rashid will not play in the BBL due to his busy schedule, not because he wants to boycott it. Also, if we give you information about Rashid’s performance in BBL, he is the most successful bowler as a foreign spinner. Rashid has taken a total of 98 wickets in 69 matches played for Adelaide Strikers in the tournament.
