Why won’t Rashid Khan play Test?

No information has been given by the board in this regard. Yes, it is true that Rashid Khan has decided to play only one Test in a year. This information had come to light some time ago, in which it was told that Rashid is now looking to play only one Test in a year. But the thing to note is that he has not played a single Test in 2026 and did not become a part of the team for the Test against India.
