Rashid Khan appreciation thread

[grecian]

Oh c'mon it had to happen, the man may be the oldest teenager ever, but he keeps on tweeking the ball like there's no tommrrow., we need to love him more than any member of our close group of friends and family.

 

[Daemon]

Yeah he's gun. Can't wait for him to do well in the IPL.

 

[cnerd123]

He's so good I'd go as far as to say that he's good enough for the Blitz tbh

 

[grecian]

T20 is not the way we (and I'm using the royal we here) want him to go. Has he got any English ancestors they were a colony once, and he looks a bit like Robbie Williams when he's fat.

I'verated this thread excellent btw, as it obviously is.

Crucial 50 today as well, definitely the better of the two Rashid's in international cricket

 

[grecian]

0-44 though, I've jinxed him clearly

Yeah his batting has really come along recently as well. He actually batted ahead of a specialist batsman in this game.

****ing brilliant

Pffft, who's the dick who voted Warne?

But seriously, this guy's bowling record is freakish across all forms, and it appears he's handy with the bat.

He's also the oldest looking 18 year old I think I've ever seen... I swear he looks twice that age going off his profile pic.

Warne.

Definitely not SOK.

 

[ajdude]

heh this reminds me a bit of mohammad shahzad, wasn't he 17 for about 5 years and then he was all of a sudden 27?

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

He has a terrific googly. Top-notch. The majority of his wickets coming against associate teams....Would love to see him play test matched. Hope he doesn't fade away after reaching 20 years old.

 

[grecian]

Yay was worried I'd jinxed him after 2 seemingly poor performances, but he comes back like the great teenage/middle-aged prodigy he is

too late - I've been saying this for months now

 

[grecian]

I'm a bit worried he's ruining his career playing silly cricket,
