Is this guy really as good as he seems to be? He has amazing stats and looks pretty good to say the least.

Also does anyone really believe that this guy's 18?

lol I'd be surprised if he was much younger than 30

Should be good interesting to see how he goes in Tests

we already have a thread for him

although TBF if any cricketer deserves two threads its probably this guy

Has a nearly unpickable wrong 'un, a nasty toppie and a huge smile. The new Mushie.

Hope he smashes every team he faces.

The new Mushie.

Does this mean he'll do nothing for a couple of years, be unplayable for five years, be crap for the next five and then disappear prematurely from the test team (unlikely considering that he's obviously much older than claimed) while cleaning up in county cricket?

give he probably actually isn't really 18, this may have been already be the case

He's now in his 5 year prime. Lets see if he tails off after that before being signed on by Worcestershire or something.

Yeah, looking at that photo there's absolutely zero chance that he's younger than me (19). Looks more like 25-28 or maybe even older.

I'm not personally convinced that his leg break is good enough to get test batsmen out and in the longer forms he'll be picked sooner or later, but I wouldn't be surprised if he at least cleans up a few teams.

Especially considering that the weaker teams like WI (and NZ ) that he'll probably be playing against are pretty poor players of spin. Not that even the stronger teams are great at that these days.

**** my bad

this can be the "Rashid Khan Age discussion thread"

 

[indiaholic]

You do look older when you are fat. Not that I think he is 18.
