Afghani star cricketer Rashid Khan revealed that he was playing while facing a hamstring injury in the 2nd ODI against South Africa. For Afghanistan, Rashid was the pick of bowlers since he picked up five-wicket play which helped hosts in beating South Africa by 177 runs.
Rashid mad his comeback in national team after missing his spot in the one off test against New Zealand due to back injury. However, the Test match supposed to take place in Greater Noida got washed away due to wet outfield and consistent rains.
“Fifer after long time and I had a hamstring injury as well since a month, but I wanted to stay in the ground and help the team. It was a big opportunity for us to win an important series, so I wanted to contribute. I enjoy bowling with youngsters, I share my ideas with them and the best part is they listen and learn quickly. And now they have started to deliver. Great to see youngsters coming up and showcasing their talent. (On playing with a hamstring injury) We had a big opportunity to win a series and the love for the game pushes you to play, I thought I was able to bowl and stay on the field, good job done by the physio as well” said Rashid.
