ESPNcricinfo Awards 2024 Men’s ODI bowling nominees – Hasaranga, Rashid, Vandersay, Haris Rauf, Wellalage
Rashid Khan
5 for 19 vs South Africa
second ODI, Sharjah
Another landmark series-winning performance: Rashid’s fiver gave Afghanistan their highest-profile bilateral series win. They dominated South Africa with the ball in the first ODI, and here they did it with the bat, piling up 311 before Rashid, whose 26th birthday it was, took a five-for, his fifth in ODIs, in South Africa’s collapse of 10 for 61. They had made it to a slow 85 for 1 in the 18th when Rashid struck in his first over, getting Tony de Zorzi flashing a drive and snicking behind. Tristan Stubbs and Kyle Verreyne were despatched in single digits in the space of three balls. Rashid bowled his spell unbroken, and in his ninth over got his fifth, Aiden Markram, with a googly that rushed through him. That left South Africa miles short at 131 for 9.
