Afghanistan captain Rashid Khan is seen as his team's strike bowler, but the recently turned 21-year-old has batting skills as well. We are aware of Rashid's range of shots. which has often unveiled during his batting stints in various T20 leagues.

But it doesn't surprise the fans anymore as Rashid has played a good hand with the bat many times now.  On Friday, during the T20I match between Zimbabwe and Afghanistan, Rashid pulled out an unorthodox shot which left everyone open-mouthed.

It was more like a Tennis swat shot which went for a six on deep mid-wicket. It was the first delivery of the last over bowled by Chris Mpofu. He banged it short after seeing Rashid walking down the wicket. But that didn't stop the Afghanistan batsman from completing his shot. Luckily the ball found the middle of the bat and added six runs. 

Rashid was very much impressed with his shot. He shared it on Twitter:
