Inzamam-ul-Haq selected me in the Afghan team on the basis of just one ball: Rashid Khan's revelation
In the practice session, Inzamam paddled me and told me to bowl. On the first 2 balls, he played a cut shot to me.
Lahaq played a key role in his selection for the Afghan team. You need a coach who believes in your abilities. Rashid Khan, 22, started his international career in 2015 on a tour of Zimbabwe. He was only selected for the T20 series.
In an interview with popular cricket website Kirk Info, Rashid Khan said that when Inzamam-ul-Haq became the coach of the Afghan team, he asked the team management if there was no league spin bowler here. The next day we had a match against Zimbabwe but I was not selected for this match.
During the practice session, Inzamam-ul-Haq padded himself and asked me to bowl. He hit me with a cut shot on my first two balls, after which I googled the third ball which hit his pads.
After which Inzamam-ul-Haq told me to prepare for tomorrow's match and you will play tomorrow's match. Rashid Khan said that Inzamam-ul-Haq gave him a lot of confidence. Before Inzamam-ul-Haq, I was considered only a T20 bowler but he also selected me in the ODI team.
