The talismanic Australian batsman, Steve Smith left the world speechless with innovative batting style. He left the balls in a unique way making the fans laugh. Recently, Afghanistan’s favourite son Rashid Khan tried to imitate Steve Smith in a hilarious video.
The former Aussie skipper has taken the art of the batsmanship to a whole new level. His appetite for runs, especially in Test cricket, has garnered him a lot of praise. He made a spectacular return to red-ball cricket after his ban scoring 774 runs in Ashes 2019 shattering many records in the way.
Rashid Khan imitates Smith
Steve Smith, who recently resumed training after a good month break due to the outbreak of COVID-19 has also drawn comparisons with Sir Don Bradman. He will be keen to make a same impression and carry out the good job when cricket resumes.
Meanwhile, recently, Steve Smith had another superstar in Rashid Khan, who imitated his batting style. Sunrisers Hyderabad’s official Instagram account recently shared a hilarious video of Rashid trying to copy Smith’s batting style.
“@rashid.khan19 doing his best @steve_smith49 impression on the Aussie’s birthday today! Have a good one, Steve,” Rashid wrote while sharing the video.

Meanwhile, Rashid Khan has reached the pinnacle with his exemplary performances in various T20 leagues across the globes. He has been a big success in the Indian Premier League scalping 55 wickets at an economy of 6.55 in just 46 matches. Now it is just not his bowling that is winning the hearts of the fans, but Rashid is entertaining with his batting also.
He was recently appointed as the skipper of the Afghanistan side; however, Afghanistan Cricket Board thought it was too early for him. As a result, they reappointed Asghar Afghan again at the helm of the team.
