Rashid Khan once again proved to be a vital cog in Sunrisers Hyderabad’s one-wicket win over Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League 2018 (IPL 2018). The Afghanistan spinner was adjudged Man of the Match following his impressive bowling. Khan in his four overs gave away only 13 runs and picked a wicket as well. However, most fascinating part of his performance was the dot balls. The SRH spinner in his four overs bowled 18 dot balls and that helped his side restrict Mumbai Indians under 150. Eventually, Sunrisers in a closely fought contest chased the target with one wicket in hand. KKR vs SRH Live Score IPL 2018

After the match, Khan, as usual, received praises for his bowling. England woman's cricketer Danielle Wyatt was also in awe of Khan’s bowling and termed the spinner as “wizard”. Wyatt replying to one of the Sunrisers Hyderabad’s tweets wrote, “Well bowled the wizard!”

Khan then replied to Wyatt and told him to be ready for a contest. “Be ready will bowle to you in Sussex, (sic)” replied Khan. Interestingly, both Khan and Wyatt are signed to Sussex.

Meanwhile, Wyatt was quick to reply and she not only accepted the challenge but looks like hinted at hitting Khan for a six (as suggested by hashtag #6Runs).

Khan has been a key figure in Sunrisers’ camp. The Afghan spinner was brought back the franchise using Right to Match card (RTM) for whopping INR 9 Crore. And safe to say, Khan has proved to be worth every penny thus far.
