'Didn't want to lose Rashid Khan': Muralitharan says SRH 'couldn't afford' Afghan spinner

Hindustan Times  

Rashid Khan has emerged to be one of the most promising talent with the ball and when Gujarat Titans won his bid for ₹15 crore it actually didn't come as a surprise. Former SRH spinner Rashid Khan Rashid started his Indian Premier League journey with SRH, making his debut in 2017 and in no time he went to grab many eyeballs owing to his mastery with the ball. While the question regarding Rashid's retention still puzzled many, SRH bowling coach Muttiah Muralitharan gave fans some clarity on why the move couldn't take place. WATCH: Hardik Pandya loses cool on Mohammed Shami, fans slam Gujarat Titans captain for outburst at senior player "We didn't want to get rid of Rashid Khan, but we couldn't afford him," said Muralitharan in a mid-innings chat with the commentators on Star Sports during Gujarat Titans' innings against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai on Monday evening.
