8. Rashid Khan

The former Afghan captain was the first cricketer from the country to have ever played in the cash-rich Indian Premier League. Rashid Khan is a brilliant bowler who is known to confuse the bowlers and also has the talent to hit the ball a long way which he has shown in the previous editions of the IPL and also in the international circuit.
With his stellar performances, he has led Afghanistan to victories over Ireland and Bangladesh and also two times champions West Indies.
In the past two seasons, Khan has racked up 21 and 17 wickets at an average of 21.80 and 22.17 respectively, and the leg-spinner will once again be the lynchpin of SRH spin-bowling unit along with Nabi.
