Rashid Khan is famous for his bowling and for hitting helicopter shots against bowlers with a good reputation. In The Hundred Men's Competition, Rashid tried the iconic MSD shot, 'Helicopter Shot,' against Luke Wells of Welsh Fire, which amused the crowd. The spontaneity of the shot was something to be adored about. However, he couldn't score much and got out on 13; his six was the game's highlight. 

Rashid Khan hit only one boundary and six and then threw away his wicket in the middle of the innings. Trent Rockets lost the game by just four runs, which would have hurt them since it was an easy win. However, they kept losing wickets at regular intervals and hence, lost the game eventually. 

It was Jonny Bairstow and Ton Abell who provided the vast total for the Welsh Fire that helped them win the match. Bairstow scored 55 runs off 45 balls, while Abell scored 33 runs off 26 balls. For the Rockets, none of the players reached the 30-run mark, and that was where the team lost the game. For a brilliant performance, Bairstow won the Player of the Match award.

 This game is a great leveller as well: Jonny Bairstow

Jonny Bairstow won the Player of the Match award for his brilliant performance in the first innings. Later on, he spoke about his teammates and all the skills they hold. He also talked about the pitch and the weather conditions. Overall, it was a great win for the Welsh. 

"Slightly low scoring game. We got the skills to defend. There were always opportunities. There was wind coming in and that helped. The fielding was exemplary. The players were up for the challenge. We will see what happens in the next game. This game is a great leveller as well. We will take one game at a time and take a positive step forward," said Jonny Bairstow.
