T20 WC: Afghanistan Skipper Rashid Khan Becomes First Bowler To Reach 700 Wickets In T20s
T20 World Cup Group: Afghanistan captain Rashid Khan has become the first player to claim 700 wickets in T20 cricket. The leg-spinner reached the landmark during his side’s Men’s T20 World Cup Group D match against the United Arab Emirates at the Arun Jaitley in New Delhi on Monday.
Rashid began the game on 699 wickets and achieved the milestone when he dismissed Muhammad Arfan in the 16th over of the UAE innings. Arfan attempted a reverse sweep but missed and disturbed on his stumps to be out hit wicket and handing Rashid his historic 700th T20 wicket.
The leg-spinner showed little animated celebration, as Afghanistan focused on securing victory over the UAE to keep their slim hopes of entering the Super Eights alive. The achievement came after Rashid had been made to wait, having taken his 698th and 699th wickets against South Africa at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad last week.
