‘God-gifted talent’: Rashid Khan on Sooryavanshi’s skill rarely seen at 15 | Exclusive

Rashid Khan has been around the India-Afghanistan rivalry long enough to have seen the balance shift. Afghanistan are no longer the side simply hoping to push the bigger teams; there is now a belief within the group that they can beat them.That belief, though, comes with some unfinished work. Ahead of the third and final ODI against India, Rashid sat down with TimesofIndia.com to discuss where Afghanistan still needs to improve, pointing to the powerplay with both bat and ball and the need to develop the mentality to score big.Rashid has also watched India's young players from close quarters. He spent time with Abhishek Sharma at Sunrisers Hyderabad and has witnessed the phenom of Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, two players he believes have the skills to go a long way in the game.
