    United Arab Emirates: United Arab Emirates (UAE) head coach Lalchand Rajput heaped praise on Sohaib Khan for being a standout middle-order batter ahead of their final ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 Group D game against South Africa, adding that he just has to go higher now in his cricketing career.

    Though UAE are out of the race to Super Eights, Sohaib has emerged as a big positive for the side in the competition. With back to back fifties against Canada and Afghanistan, Sohaib has become the first UAE batter to achieve this feat in a single edition of the T20 World Cup.

    His nine sixes are also the most maximums hit by a UAE player in a single T20 World Cup edition. Due to this, UAE have the fourth best run rate (12.3) in overs 17-20, with Sohaib having an astonishing strike-rate of 197.
