Ο πρωταγωνιστής των Gujrat Titans Rashid Khan θα ηγηθεί του MI Cape Town στο SA20 2025

Afghanistan’s cricket star Rashid Khan has been re-appointed as the captain of MI Cape Town for the upcoming SA20 season. Rashid had led the team during the first season but missed the second season due to an injury. The team announced his appointment via social media. Rashid is currently part of Gujarat Titans in the IPL, he’s set to play IPL 2025 under Shubman Gill’s captaincy.

Taking about SA 20, under Rashid’s leadership, MI Cape Town finished at the bottom of the points table in the first season, despite having a strong squad. Last season, the team missed his services, as Rashid is a key player in their bowling lineup. Unlike the Indian Premier League’s Mumbai Indians, MI Cape Town has had a rough start in SA20, finishing at the bottom for two consecutive seasons. With Rashid’s return, the team will hope for a better performance this season.

Rashid to lead star players

Rashid Khan will now lead a team filled with star players like Ryan Rickelton, Dewald Brevis, Ben Stokes, and Trent Boult. His leadership will be crucial, especially with the team’s impressive bowling lineup, including himself, Boult, Kagiso Rabada, and Nuwan Thushara from RCB. The strong bowling attack could be the key to their success.

Challenges for MI Cape Town

While the batting lineup looks a bit weak, the captain’s leadership and the exciting bowling attack are expected to compensate. The third season of the SA20 will begin on January 9, with all teams fighting hard for the trophy.
