19.1
Farid Malik to Brandon Mavuta, SIX! This is wonderfully done by Mavuta! Walks across to a full delivery outside off and scoops it towards fine leg boundary for a maximum.

Rashid Khan to Wesley Madhevere, OUT! LBW! That is plumb! Rashid fires a quicker delivery on the stumps and Wesley, who is looking to sweep it away gets beaten and is rapped on the pads. Easy decision for the umpire. Brandon Mavuta walks in next.

17.2
Rashid Khan to Richmond Mutumbami, OUT! TIMBER! Googly does the trick again, a length delivery around off and Richmond has a wild slog at it. The bat is nowhere near the ball and the furniture is disturbed behind. Closing things well is Rashid. Donald Tiripano is in next to face the music.

16.6
Farid Malik to Richmond Mutumbami, FOUR! Delicately done. On a good length and around off, this is worked cheekily over the short third man fielder, into the third man ropes. 68 needed in the last 3 overs, does not look achievable, honestly.

16.2
Farid Malik to Sikandar Raza, OUT! CAUGHT! Another wicket and Malik strikes and the curtains are being called, on this game. Farid bowls a slower bouncer outside off, Raza looks to pull this one over the man at deep mid-wicket. But his timing on this shot is questionable. The ball goes to the substitute fielder, Ibrahim Zadran there and he again ends up taking a good catch. 75 more needed in 22 balls.

15.3
Rashid Khan to Richmond Mutumbami, FOUR! Powerful strike, this! Full ball on his pads and Richmond thumps it past Rashid for a boundary. There was man at long but he had no chance to stop it.
W
14.3
Karim Janat to Ryan Burl, OUT! TIMBER! Beautifully bowled by Janat and Afghanistan get another wicket and the game is slipping away from the visitors now. Steams in and fires in a yorker on the middle pole, Burl looks to heave this to the leg side but misses. You miss, I hit. The sticks go for a walk. 88 needed in 33 balls now.

13.1
Rashid Khan to Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, OUT! BOWLED! Big wicket for Afghanistan as Tinashe was well set! Rashid brings out the googly and it does the trick! Shortish delivery outside off, came in and stayed a bit low while doing so, Tinashe looked to play it off the back foot but the ball goes through his defence and tickles the stumps.

12.2
Naveen-ul-Haq to Sikandar Raza, FOUR! Back-to-back boundaries for Raza and he is showing his intent now. Shortish and around off, Sikandar Raza sways away and guides this one through backward point, beats the man in the deep, to his left. 100 up for Zimbabwe!

12.1
Naveen-ul-Haq to Sikandar Raza, MISFIELD AND FOUR! Short and wide outside off, Sikandar Raza slaps this one to the deep cover region but the man in the deep runs to his right and makes a meal of this one. A boundary results.

11.5
Rashid Khan to Sikandar Raza, FOUR! Cracking shot by the experienced man! This ball was a touch short and on off stump, Raza makes room for himself and cuts it towards third man for a boundary.

10.3
Karim Janat to Sean Williams, OUT! CAUGHT! He's a goner! The captain, Williams goes back now and this is a big wicket for Afghanistan! Janat does the trick and sends the danger man back into the shed. Bowls a length ball around off, but without any pace, Sean Williams looks for the clip away to the on side but closes the face of the bat early as the ball takes the leading edge and lobs towards Hashmatullah Shahidi at point, who makes no mistake. 116 more needed in 57 balls.

9.6
Mohammad Nabi to Sean Williams, SIX! Gets a maximum this time! Flatter delivery, drops this a little short and Williams has no problem pulling it over deep square leg for a six. 15 from the over, 117 needed more at the halfway mark.

9.5
Mohammad Nabi to Sean Williams, FOUR! This is a poor delivery from Nabi, short ball down the leg side and Williams pulls it behind square leg for a four.

8.6
Karim Janat to Sean Williams, FOUR! Innovation at its best from the captain of the ship! Knows that the third man is up now and so, to this short of a length ball around off, he just sways back and directs it over the fielder there, and into the ropes at third man. 132 needed in 66 balls now.
4
7.4
Mohammad Nabi to Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, FOUR! Uppish but in the gap! Nabi comes round the wicket and bowls shortish delivery outside off, Tinashe looks to carve it through the off side but gets the outside edge and the ball goes between short third man and point.

5.6
Amir Hamza to Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, FOUR! Great shot! Amir drops this one quite short, Tinashe rocks back to the back foot and pulls it between deep mid-wicket and long on. Powerplay is done, Zimbabwe are 47/1. Afghanistan were 66/0 at this very same stage.

4.5
Farid Malik to Tarisai Musakanda, OUT! TAKEN! The first stand is broken and Afghanistan will be a happy bunch with this wicket. The man in the deep was placed for this shot and the ploy has worked out. Short and around off, Tarisai Musakanda cannot resist and he brings out the pull shot again. This time, not with the best timing though as the ball flies towards the deep mid-wicket region, where the substitute fielder, Ibrahim Zadran takes a good catch. 161 more needed in 91 balls.

4.1
Farid Malik to Tarisai Musakanda, FOUR! Short and punished! Drops this one very short and Tarisai pulls it to past short fine leg and fetches back-to-back boundaries for his team.

3.6
Amir Hamza to Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, FOUR! Short in length on middle, skidding in, Tinashe Kamunhukamwe hangs on the back foot and hammers it to the right side of mid-wicket for a boundary. 10 from the over, Zimbabwe are picking up the scoring rate now.

2.1
Naveen-ul-Haq to Tarisai Musakanda, SIX! The first one of this innings and it looked very nonchalant from Tarisai Musakanda! Overpitched and on middle, Musakanda stands tall and bangs this one way over the deep mid-wicket fence. Used the angle of the bowler to his advantage!

1.6
Amir Hamza to Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, FOUR! Cracking shot by Tinashe! Flatter ball around off and Tinashe sweeps it through mid-wicket for a boundary. That should reduce some of the pressure.
