Though Kane Williamson-led SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) missed out on their second IPL success, the Hyderabad outfit's efforts garnered praise from all around the world. Afghan spinner Rashid Khan was one of the reasons for SunRisers Hyderabad's spectacular show in IPL 2018. Rashid Khan, who played a vital role's in his team's journey to the final, single-handedly took SunRisers Hyderabad to the final of the tournament by beating Kolkata Knight Riders in the Qualifier 2. After Rashid's magnificent show, batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar took to Twitter and called the 19-year-old 'best spinner in the world'.
Rashid Khan saw Tendulkar's tweet when he boarded the team bus post SunRisers Hyderabad victory and was awestruck.
"When I got into the bus, a friend sent me a screenshot of the tweet and I was shocked to see it. I was thinking for like 1-2 hours before I could eventually reply. I really didn't know what to write, but finally I replied," Rashid told Times of India on Monday.
