Afghanistan is focused on playing for the country first- Rashid Khan

Before the Asia Cup 2022 match against Bangladesh, Afghanistan's standout spinner Rashid Khan noted that even though the players compete in multiple leagues, representing their country always comes first. Bangladesh and Afghanistan will square off at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Tuesday. Mohammad Nabi, an all-rounder, will serve as the team's captain. There has been one alteration from the 16-person group that toured Ireland. Sharafuddin Ashraf has been replaced; he is now a member of the reserves. Samiuallah Shinwari Noor Ahmed, a spinner, has also been included in the squad.

Afghanistan recorded their second-largest T20I victory in terms of balls remaining after holding Sri Lanka to 105. Depending on how their bowling unit, led by Fazalhaq Farooqi, performs, they will soar. "We want to play enough of international cricket so that youth may play and get a chance. Although we all play in different leagues, our country's responsibility always comes first.” Rashid Khan said.
