Star Afghanistan spinner Rashid Khan has admitted that he made a "huge mistake" by returning too quickly from his back surgery last year.

The cricketer had a disappointing IPL 2025 season, taking just nine wickets in 15 matches. However, he has bounced back strongly this year with an impressive haul of 15 wickets in just 11 games for Gujarat Titans (GT). On Saturday, he claimed a match-winning four-fer versus Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur.
