You will be surprised to know that till now only 11 bowlers have been successful in taking 150 or more wickets in the IPL and now Rashid has a great chance to become the 12th bowler. Let me tell you, 7 bowlers out of 11 bowlers taking 150 or more wickets in IPL are spinners. Rashid will become the 8th spinner of the world and the first bowler of Afghanistan to make it to this special list.
