Rashid Khan may be renowned as one of the best spinners in the world, but on Sunday, the Afghan international showcased his talent with the bat as well. Leading Gujarat Titans (GT) in the absence of Hardik Pandya, Rashid played a crucial knock of 40 runs in 21 balls with a strike rate of over 190.
En route, his 40-run inning laced with three huge sixes, one of which came against Chris Jordan, whom Khan whacked all around the park, left netizens in awe of his batting exploits.
Rashid scored two sixes and a four off the first three balls from Jordan's 18th over, after which the former struck an unorthodox six, yet again, clearing the fence, after which MS Dhoni called Jordan over to have a discussion with him.

The remaining two balls of the over produced 3 runs but by then the damage had already been done. In the absence of Hardik Pandya, who missed out the game through a groin strain, GT skipper Rashid filled in the captain's role in a sublime manner.
In GT's previous game against Rajasthan Royals, it was Hardik who played a captain's knock, but against CSK, Rashid took the burden upon himself.
A video of Rashid's six towards the leg side is now going viral on social media:

Talking about the match, apart from Rashid's late flurry, David Miller also remained unbeaten at 94 having faced 54 deliveries, thereby helping GT register a 3-wicket win.
CSK appeared to be headed towards a win after Dwayne Bravo got rid of Rashid and Alzarri Joseph in quick succession, but needing 13 runs in the final over, David Miller and Co were able to finish the job and go top of the table.
