Afghanistan leg spinner Rashid Khan has been sensational for the Hyderabad franchise in the IPL. In 16 matches, Rashid has picked 21 wickets in 16 matches and has turned games around on their head.
Lately, Rashid has also shown that he is a capable batsman and has the ability of scoring some quick runs with the bat. When he came up with an extraordinary all-round performance in the Qualifier 2 against KKR, fans went crazy for him.

Rashid first took SRH’s score to 144, blasting a 10-ball 34 and then came back to pick up 3 wickets while bowling economically. It was too much for the fans to handle as they requested Minister of External Affairs Sushma Swaraj to grant him Indian citizenship.
@SushmaSwaraj Is there any way, Rashid Khan can be given Indian citizenship? We need him in our XI @rashidkhan_19 #SRHvsKKR

India should give citizenship to Rashid Khan. Serious. Best case scenario for 2019 World Cup. #SRHvRCB

Not many Khans who are in India deserve it, but this Rashid Khan should be offered Indian citizenship.#SRHvCSK

Unexpectedly, Sushma Swaraj reverted from her official twitter handle to take part in the banter.
However, the tweet was deleted after a little while.
