IPL 2025: Rashid Khan’s Wicket-taking Ability Is Missing Now, Says Anil Kumble
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: According to former India captain Anil Kumble, Gujarat Titans’ leg-spinner Rashid Khan’s wicket-taking prowess seems to have diminished currently, resulting in the side having issues in the bowling department.
Rashid is enduring one of his poorest seasons in the IPL, picking only nine wickets in 14 games at an average of 53.66 and an economy rate of 9.47. "When things have not started off well for GT in those first six overs, the pressure on the bowling attack has been pretty obvious. That's where the Rashid wicket-taking ability is sort of missing now, and that's why they're probably struggling," said Kumble on ESPNcricinfo.
Kumble, who turned out for Royal Challengers Bengaluru as a player and went on to mentor them as well as Mumbai Indians, further emphasised that the Shubman Gill-led side needs to stay calm and focused as GT approach the final stages of the tournament.
