New Delhi [India], : Gujarat Titans star spinner Rashid Khan stated that he isn't "happy" with his wickets tally in the ongoing Indian Premier League but is happy to play "little" roles, which helps his team to clinch victory.

Rashid has had an underwhelming season for the last year's finalist. In six matches, Rashid has six scalps to his name at an economy of 7.96 and an average of 31.83.

The Afghanistan spinner struggled to make batters dance to his tune, which he has done throughout his career. He went wicketless in the opening game against the Mumbai Indians. He managed to pick two against the Chennai Super Kings but conceded 49 runs, which was the most by any GT bowler. Since then, he has picked a wicket each in the next four matches.

Rashid opened up about his struggle in the ongoing season and vowed to take more wickets in the next eight matches.

"In the first three gam

es, I struggled a bit coming after the surgery; it wasn't easy to get back to my own rhythm. I am so happy in the last two to three games, I have played how my body allowed me to enjoy my bowling and I am quite happy with that. Wicket wise, I am not happy with that but that is what T20 cricket is all about. Sometimes you need to play a little role, which helps the team to win the game and I am trying my best to play that little role. In any part where I can change the momentum of the game, I try my best. I will do my best to take more wickets in the last eight games," Rashid told ANI.
