Saha scored 87 runs off just 45 balls and enabled SRH get past the 200-run mark.
Saha and skipper David Warner helped SRH post 77 runs in the first six overs against Delhi Capitals.
Rashid praised Saha for his ferocious knock and said the wicket-keeper batsman dominated the bowlers on Tuesday.
"I have never seen this type of knock-in this year's IPL. It was one of the best innings this season. He dominated the bowlers," Rashid told Saha in a video posted on iplt20.com.
Rashid starred with the ball taking three wickets against Delhi Capitals. The leg spinner bowled 17 dot balls in his four overs.
