  • Rashid Khan is one of the most lethal bowlers in cricket

    Afghanistan teenage leg spin ace Rashid Khan is being courted by two English counties according to the Daily Mail.

    The 18-year-old – who earlier this month produced the fourth best bowling figures ever in ODI cricket, taking seven for 18 to destroy the West Indies batting line-up in Saint Lucia – has taken 63 wickets in 29 ODI and 42 in 27 T20I appearances for his country.

    However, according to the newspaper, the problem regarding Khan – who is higher than any of the English bowlers in both the International Cricket Council (ICC) ODI and T20 rankings – is whether he passes strict work visa regulations.
