IPL 2023: Best XI of the tournament

9. Rashid Khan (Gujarat Titans)

Without any doubt, Rashid Khan is the best bowler in the T20 format. Even after playing all around the world, he still holds the status of being lethal. Rashid has been the backbone of the spin bowling department of Gujarat Titans.

This time around, even though he was not at his best economically, Rashid managed to pick up 27 wickets in 17 games. Adding on, he had a best bowling figure of 4/30 in this edition of the IPL as well. Talking about his batting, Rashid was brutal with the bat, as he was striking at 216.67 throughout the season.

 Against the Mumbai Indians, Rashid went on to smash 79 runs in a losing cause which did hamper the net run rate of the five-time champions. Adding on, his fielding was top-notch as well as he grabbed the catch of the tournament this year. For GT, the Afghan all-rounder was a complete package.
