How are Rashid Khan and other Afghan cricketers in Afghanistan after Taliban occupation?

Many people want to know that, How are Rashid Khan and other Afghan cricketers in Afghanistan after the occupation of the Taliban?

Today we will discuss the cricketers of Afghanistan after capturing the country by the Taliban and discuss their family and tweets done by the cricketers.

 

Current Afghanistan status 

Afghanistan is now occupied by the Taliban. Taliban fighters have also captured Kabul. Along with this, the Taliban has used some sweet words like peace and peace while announcing the war's end. But there is an atmosphere of panic in the whole country. People are forced to migrate. Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani has already left the nation. In the struggle to leave the country, a crowd of people broke down at the Kabul airport. The news of the death of 5 people is coming in the firing.

Meanwhile, the question is also arising that where are the Afghan cricketers? How are their families? Are Afghanistan players safe? Because for the past few weeks, Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi were constantly pleading for help.

 

Rashid Khan playing The Hundred League

Rashid Khan is an amazing leg spinner and, at present, also the captain of the Afghanistan T20 team. Rashid plays for Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL. At the same time, Mohammad Nabi is an all-rounder. Apart from Navroz Mangal, Asghar Afghan, Nabi has also contributed to taking Afghanistan cricket to the heights.

At the same time, Mujeeb ur Rahman is a young spinner and a rising star. All three players play for the Hyderabad franchise in IPL. Nabi, Rashid, and Mujeeb play in T20 leagues around the world. Because of this, they stay out of the country for more time. Currently, he is playing in England's 'The Hundred' league. It is reported that Nabi, Rashid, and Mujeeb will remain in England till the end of The Hundred League. Former England player Kevin Pietersen has given the latest information about Rashid Khan. During a conversation with Sky Sports, Pietersen said,

“A lot is happening in Afghanistan. I spoke to Rashid on the boundary during the match. He was distraught. Rashid could not take his family out of the country. There is nothing happening right in the nation. Despite this, Rashid is doing well in the league under this pressure. This is praise-worthy."

 

How are the cricketers?

Nabi, Rashid, and Mujeeb are in England and are safe. But how is the rest of the cricket team? Know about them also. Afghanistan has to play one-day series with Pakistan next. The first series was to be held in Dubai. But now, Sri Lanka has been shifted. The series will be played from 1 to 5 September. The Sri Lanka Cricket Board has been permitted to organize the series in Hambantota. Meaning Afghan cricketers are safe, and Afghanistan Cricket Board is taking full care. But his family members are in Afghanistan only. There is no search news about him in the media.

 

Cricketers pleaded for help :

 Earlier, Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi had appealed to the world for help. Rashid wrote while tweeting,

“All the leaders of the world, the situation in my country is getting worse. Thousands of children, women, and civilians are being killed. Homes and all properties are being destroyed. Millions of families have come on the roads and are pushed to migrate. Please do not leave us alone in this atmosphere of chaos. Stop the killing of Afghans. Don't let Afghanistan be destroyed. We want peace."

 

 All-rounder Mohammad Nabi also tweeted that-

“As an Afghan, it feels bad to see where our country is today. There is an atmosphere of chaos in Afghanistan. New stories of disaster and tragedy are emerging every day. People are forced to leave their homes and homes. Where will you go from Kabul? Do not know. Their houses are being confiscated. I appeal to the leaders of the world; please save Afghanistan from ruin. We need your support. We want peace."

There is an atmosphere of tension in Afghanistan. Even the cricketers don't know where they will go. Rashid, Nabi, and Mujeeb are safe now. But in what condition his family is, nothing is known.

 

Rashid and Nabi will play IPL :

IPL is going to happen in September and then T20 World Cup. Sunrisers Hyderabad has confirmed that Rashid and Nabi will play. But will the Afghanistan team play the T20 World Cup or not? Nothing can be said now. We will hope that the Afghan players and their families are safe.
