Afghan cricketer Rashid Khan on the way to a big miracle; Can make this record in T20
This is the time of T20 leagues all over the world. While the SA20 league is making waves in South Africa, the new season of BBL is also going on in full swing. Cricketers from all over the world are showcasing their talent in these leagues. Some of these prominent players are in the news for their performance. Meanwhile, Afghanistan's star spinner Rashid Khan has come very close to a new record. There is a possibility that he will achieve this new milestone before the Champions Trophy.
The bowler who has taken the most wickets in T20 at the moment is Dwayne Bravo of West Indies. Here we are talking about wickets taken in T20 International and T20 League. Dwayne Bravo has so far succeeded in taking 631 wickets by playing 582 T20 matches. However, now he neither plays international matches nor is a part of any league. If we talk about Rashid Khan, he is currently in the second position.
Rashid Khan has taken 625 wickets in 455 T20 matches so far. That means he is only 6 wickets away from leaving Dwayne Bravo behind. This task is not very difficult for him. The good thing is that there is no one close to Rashid Khan, Sunil Narayan is in the third position in this list, he has managed to take 570 wickets in 528 T20 matches. That means Sunil is far behind in this list.
Rashid Khan is currently playing SA20. In which he is the captain of MI Cape Town. This tournament has just started and there are many matches left. SA20 will conclude on February 8. By then, Rashid Khan may become the highest wicket-taker in T20. Rashid Khan is still young, so he can play cricket for a long time even after becoming number one. That means he will create an even more difficult record, which will be even more difficult to break.
