Rashid Khan to Play for Adelaide Strikers
Afghanistan leg-spinner Rashid Khan again joins hands with Adelaide Strikers in BBL 10. Rashid currently plays for Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2020.
The 10th BBL will begin on December 3 when the Adelaide Strikers host the Melbourne Renegades, followed by 60 matches across the country and a final on February 6. Big Bash League 2020-2021 full squad details and schedules were updates earlier.
Rashid is the third-highest wicket-taker for the Strikers with 56 from just 40 matches and the best economy of those who have bowled more than 10 innings with 6.36. Rashid first joined the Strikers as a teenager in 2017 and was part of the squad that won its maiden Championship.
Despite his absence in the Final due to commitments with his national team, read the club website. Rashid has best figures of 4/22 which was also his maiden Big Bash hat-trick against the Sydney Sixers at Adelaide Oval in BBL|09.
In August the then 21-year-old became the youngest and fastest to 300 Twenty20 wickets. Rashid also possesses a mighty swing of the bat, stunning crowds, and the opposition with his swash-buckling ‘helicopter shots’ and outrageous ramps to all parts of the ground.
Head Coach Jason Gillespie is looking forward to welcoming Rashid back to South Australia for the fourth season.
“Rashid has been such a quality player and person for the city of Adelaide and the Strikers from the moment he arrived,” Gillespie said.
