The whole world is aware of the political situation in Afghanistan at this time. Meanwhile, a lot of players from Afghanistan take part in the Indian Premier League. Due to the current state of affairs in Afghanistan, questions have been aroused whether star leg-spinner Rashid Khan and all-rounder Mohammad Nabi will be available for the UAE leg of the tournament. On the other hand, 13 matches of the tournament will take place in Dubai, while Sharjah will host 10 matches. Meanwhile, 8 matches will take place in Abu Dhabi.
Both players are part of the franchise team SunRisers Hyderabad team. Meanwhile, SRH CEO K. Shanmugam said the two Afghanistan players will be a part of the IPL in the UAE. He further said, "We haven't spoken on what is happening at present, but they are available for the tournament.
Meanwhile, former England skipper Kevin Pietersen has revealed that spinner Rashid Khan is worried about the situation in Afghanistan. He said, "There's a lot of things that are happening at home. We had a long chat here on the boundary talking about it and he's worried: he can't get his family out of Afghanistan and there's a lot of things happening for him. For him to turn up and put on a performance like this under the pressure that he is currently under… for him to be able to forget that stuff and navigate his story and continue the momentum that he has. I think that's probably one of the most heart-warming stories of this Hundred so far."
