Rashid Khan showcased his fielding talents within the ongoing Large Bash League (BBL) on Sunday all the way through Adelaide Strikers’ opener in opposition to Hobart Hurricanes on the Bellerive Oval in Hobart.
The 22-year-old Afghanistan bowler shocked all and sundry together with his acrobatics close to the boundary rope to push aside Hobart Hurricanes batsman Colin Ingram within the first innings.
Within the 16th over, Ingram controlled to smack a brief ball from Peter Siddle prime within the air. The ball was once set to pass the boundary rope, however Rashid stuck the ball adeptly close to the boundary line.
After taking the catch, the leg-spinner virtually misplaced his stability however regained it after taking a few hops. He threw the ball within the air and stepped previous the boundary rope, prior to stepping again in to finish the catch.
So just right to have Rashid Khan again in Australia – as a result of he does such things as this! @BKTtires | #BBL10 pic.twitter.com/8qkofnlYop

Despite the fact that Rashid earned plaudits for his fielding effort, he had an underwhelming begin to the 10th version of the match for Adelaide Strikers. He registered figures of one/38 with the ball and was once disregarded for a golden duck all the way through the chase.
Alternatively, his teammate Peter Siddle had a second of his personal within the first innings. Whilst bowling in opposition to Tim David within the ultimate over of the Hurricanes’ innings, the veteran Australian pacer stopped mid-way thru his run-up to warn the non-striker, James Faulkner.
Even after being given a Mankading caution, Faulkner dared Siddle to run him out in jest.
James Faulkner was once virtually bold Peter Siddle to Mankad him right here ?
