Rashid takes third-best figures ever in thumping win

Afghan leg-spinner Rashid Khan has lit up the Gabba to steer the Strikers off the bottom of the BBL|11 ladder with a 71-run win over the Brisbane Heat.

Khan dismissed Heat batters Sam Heazlett (0) and Jake Lehmann (0) in consecutive deliveries in his second over on his way to match-winning figures of 6-17 as the Heat were bowled out for 90 in 15 overs on Wednesday.
