Rashid will be making his tournament debut for Sharjah Warriors.
 
Rashid is the third player to have been signed as a Wildcard in the Season 2. Australia big-hitter Tim David made his DP World ILT20 and MI Emirates debut on Saturday against the Dubai Capitals at the Dubai International Stadium.
 
England batter Dan Lawrence was picked as a Wildcard by Desert Vipers. Lawrence featured in Vipers tournament opener against Abu Dhabi Knight Riders in Dubai on Sunday.
 
The Wildcard was introduced by the DP World ILT20 as an additional squad selection option for the franchises.
 
Each franchise is permitted to add up to two additional players to its squad, beyond the original limit of 22 players. This is an option and not mandatory. If franchises have already reached the maximum $2.5m salary spend, they will be permitted to spend a maximum of 10% of the salary cap which is $250,000 on Wildcard players.
 
If teams still have some room within the original maximum $2.5m salary spend, they will be able to spend that remaining amount and if required, a further amount up to $250,000 while remaining within the Wildcard player spend.
 
Wildcard players may come into DP World ILT20 at any stage during the season.
