Rashid Khan’s MS Dhoni-Esque No-Look Six Vs Ireland Wows IPL 2024 Fans
In a recent training video, CSK’s immortal man, MS Dhoni, pulled off a no-look six that went viral in no time.
Rashid Khan produced a similar show on Sunday during Afghanistan’s do-or-die T20I match against Ireland, and it was Barry McCarthy who was at the receiving end at Sharjah Cricket Stadium.
Coming to bat at No. 9, Afghanistan’s skipper Rashid played a breezy cameo (25 off 12), which later played a pivotal role in their 10-run win in the second T20I. His knock was characterized by the way he maintained his pose after a no-look six in the 18th over of the Afghanistan innings.
The Irish right-arm fast bowled a shallow full-toss over middle and leg stump, but Rashid remained calm and stood tall before casually slapping it deep backwards square leg for six. Crowds were pumped, and so were the fans of the Indian Premier League (IPL), who are eagerly awaiting to see him in the upcoming edition in Gujarat Titans’ colours.

After missing out on a few months for both club as well as country, Rashid made a spectacular return in the series opener, albeit it all went in vain. The series decider will take place at the same venue later on Monday (March 18), after which Rashid will travel to India for IPL 2024 commitments.
