At this time in the world of cricket, the name of Rashid Khan of Afghanistan is famous as a star player, he has proved his leg break and Googly balls. When asked to compare Virat Kohli, Kane Williamson and Babar Azam, he said, “It is very difficult (comparing all three batsmen) but there is no doubt that Virat is a world class player. Even Kane Williamson and Babar Azam are also there. They know their limits and what shots they can play. The process with which they start and end their innings is very clear.”
Rashid is busy playing in the sixth edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL). The 22-year-old Rashid plays for Lahore Qalandars, who are soon to face Karachi Kings in a crucial match in the ongoing tournament. Azam, who plays for the Kings, is one of their key players. If the Pakistan captain does not score runs, then the Kings will have to face problems due to their struggling middle-order batsmen. Rashid knows that Babar Azam is the only threat, so he wants to bowl to the best of his ability to get him out.

He said, ‘There is no doubt that Babar is a world-class batsman. But as a bowler, my focus is always on backing my strength. As a bowler, you study the strong and weak points of the batsman you are bowling to. But at the same time, it’s important to have your backing and that is good line and length bowling. If I do that, whoever the batsman is, I will get good results. I watch his videos to make plans but I believe in backing up my ability.”
