Rashid Khan is in the news for his second marriage. The ace spinner was seen sitting beside a woman, and the pictures and videos of the two went viral. Rashid got married for the first time in October 2024 in Kabul.
Amid rumours that Rashid has married for the second time, he mentioned that the woman in the picture is his wife, thus confirming that he tied the knot for the second time.
Rashid revealed that his second marriage took place a few months back.
“On August 2nd 2025, I began a new and meaningful chapter of my life. I had my nikkah done and married a woman who embodies the love, peace and partnership I always hoped for. I recently took my wife to a charity event, and it’s unfortunate to see assumptions being made from something so simple. The truth is straightforward: she is my wife, and we stand together with nothing to hide. To everyone who has shown kindness, support and understanding, thank you,” Rashid wrote in a post on Instagram.
For the record, the video was taken at the launch of the cricketer’s charity foundation in the Netherlands. He is the leading wicket-taker in T20Is, taking 182 scalps in 108 matches at an average of 13.69. Rashid led Afghanistan in the Asia Cup, but his team failed to make it to the semis.
