3. Qais Ahmed
The 20-year-old leg spinner from Afghanistan is one of the upcoming revelations from the Asian country. Qais Ahmed has time and again proved his mantle in the T20 leagues he’s been playing around the World. A typical leg spinner with all the variations in his luggage, Qais once foxed Andre Russell during the T10 Abu Dhabi League with a dreadful bouncer which almost knocked him off, though Russell dodged the delivery unhurt, it really didn’t go down well with Dr. Russ as he was batting without a helmet on.
Talking about Qais Ahmed’s performance in the T20 leagues around the World, He finished as the third-highest wicket-taker in the recently concluded Lanka Premier League where he picked up 12 wickets in 9 matches for his side Colombo Kings. In the Afghan Premier League which took place in 2018, Qais was again the third-highest wicket-taker behind Isuru Udana and Sayed Shirzad with 15 wickets in 9 matches.

With the kind of impact Qais Ahmed has brought into the limited amount of matches he’s played so far, it would be safe to say that the spinner is following the footsteps of his senior national team colleague Rashid Khan. Franchises like Mumbai Indians, Delhi Capitals, and Rajasthan Royals can look to acquire the services of Qais since they’re low on foreign spinners in the side.
