With Moeen Ali’s 111 wickets, and Graeme Swann’s 104, Rashid is already England’s leading spinner in one-dꩵay internationals.
The 36-year-old reached the 200-wicket landmark after dismissing Glenn Maxwell for just seven during his sixth over in the second ODI against Aust💯ralia at Headingley in Leeds.
Rashid also picked up Adam Zampa, finishing his spell with figures of 2/42 as the hosts bundled out Australia for 270 run✱s in 4♏4.4 overs.
The wrist-spinner also joined Darren Gough and James Anderson to become just the third English bowler to take 200 wicket🌳s ☂in ODIs.
Rashid took only 137 innings to reach the 200-club, making 🅺him the third-fastest spinner, behind Saqlain Mushtaq and Shane Warne, who took 104 and 134 respectively.
Making his England debut in the 2009 T20 World Cup, he established himself as the country’s leading white-ball spinner in 2015, and also played a very pivotal role in the side winning the ICC ODI World Cup in 2019 at home, as well as the T20 World Cup in 2022.
