Rashid Khan creates history, becomes youngest bowler to take 400 T20 wickets
Martin Guptill became Rashid’s 400th victim in T20 cricket. He is the 4th bowler to enter the 400 club after Dwayne Bravo (553), Sunil Narine (425) and Imran Tahir (420). Rashid has 103 wickets for Afghanistan and 93 scalps for Sunrisers Hyderabad while the rest have come for the teams he plays for in different T20 tournaments around the world.
With his consistent performances, he has managed to become a household name in the T20 leagues across the world. He has become a globetrotter in the T20 leagues and his popularity is only soaring higher with every passing season.
Earlier, Rashid had become the fastest bowler to register 100 dismissals in Twenty20 Internationals during a T20 World Cup 2021 match against Pakistan.
Only three other bowlers have taken 100 wickets in T20Is. Sri Lanka pacer Lasith Malinga was the first to reach the landmark in 2019, while Bangladesh’s Shakib Al Hasan and New Zealand’s Tim Southee made the elite club earlier this year.
Southee, in fact, accomplished the milestone during this edition of the T20 WC against Pakistan.
