Rashid Khan, 'Most Valuable Player in T20'
A 10-ball 34, 3 for 19, a pivotal run-out, and two high-pressure catches in the final over. Has anyone ever turned in a better all-round T20 performance than Rashid Khan in the playoffs against Kolkata Knight Riders?.
Always felt @rashidkhan_19 was a good spinner but now I wouldn't hesitate in saying he is the best spinner in the world in this format. Mind you, he's got some batting skills as well. Great guy.

Afghans take absolute pride in our hero, Rashid Khan. I am also thankful to our Indian friends for giving our players a platform to show their skills. Rashid reminds us whats best about Afg. He remains an asset to the cricketing world. No we are not giving him away. @narendramodi

This was @rashidkhan_19 's day and when it is the day of a top player, his team invariably wins. Congratulations @SunRisers . The two top teams meet in the final on Sunday, must be a fascinating contest #KKRVSRH

Unbelievable bowling by Rashid Khan backed by superb captaincy but not the smartest move to not show respect for the best T-20 bowler in the world #KKRvSRH #IPL2018

Has anyone ever had a better T20 match? 35 off 10 balls. 3 for 18, and two catches. The best strike rate, the best economy rate, and the most wickets. Rashid Khan could have parted the sea today

I think, this year, Rashid Khan has joined Lasith Malinga and Sunil Narine in the pantheon of #IPL bowlers.
