Star spinner Rashid Khan says winning the ICC T20I Cricketer of the Decade award is a special achievement for a player from an emerging country like Afghanistan. The 22-year-old leg-spinner was the highest wicket-taker in T20 Internationals in the past 10 years with 89 scalps at an average of 12.62. “I have played for five years and my target is to play for another 10 years and keep on doing well. “I can’t forget my performance in 2016 T20 World Cup where I was the second highest wicket taker. I took two wickets in that match and the wicket of Marlon Samuels was my best in that World Cup.”
