Apart from troubling batters at almost his will, Afghanistan spinner Rashid Khan has also displayed his ability to smash long hits in tournaments like the Indian Premier League and Big Bash League in the past. But he is not satisfied with cameos and now wants to deliver more consistently with the bat. Rashid, who is currently playing for the Gujarat Titans in the ongoing seasons of IPL, is keen on delivering on both fronts for his team.
The 24-year-old feels that he has the ability to be a better batter and just needed to take more responsibility.
“I think I can be a much better batsman than what I am now. I should be someone taking more responsibility in that department as well. I keep working on my batting. In the last couple of years, there’s more expectation from me in that department that I can deliver crucial 20-25 runs with the bat. I know I have the skill and talent to deliver that, it’s just about bringing that confidence in you that you can deliver,” Rashid was quoted as saying by Sportstar.
While Rashid has not got many chances to bat in IPL and has only 222 runs to his credit, he has emerged as one of the most successful spinners in the tournament since making his debut in 2017.
