Afghanistan teenage leg spin ace Rashid Khan is being courted by two English counties according to the Daily Mail.

The 18-year-old – who earlier this month produced the fourth best bowling figures ever in ODI cricket, taking seven for 18 to destroy the West Indies batting line-up in Saint Lucia – has taken 63 wickets in 29 ODI and 42 in 27 T20I appearances for his country.

However, according to the newspaper, the problem regarding Khan – who is higher than any of the English bowlers in both the International Cricket Council (ICC) ODI and T20 rankings – is whether he passes strict work visa regulations.
