Match Highlights
Arshdeep Singh to Najibullah, FOUR, yorker length and Najibullah has managed to flick it away through backward square leg. Arshdeep Singh can’t believe it. He’s bowled very well today but is unlucky not to get any wicket
Arshdeep Singh to Najibullah, FOUR, excellent effort from the fielder! Short delivery, Najibullah upper-cuts over backward point. Tilak Varma turns around from backward point, runs back and dives full length. He covers a lot of distance and does a superb job to get his hands on it. But he ends up palming it away for four
Arshdeep Singh to Karim Janat, 1 run, very full wide of off, Karim Janat drills to long-off. He couldn’t get under it. 150 up for Afghanistan!
Arshdeep Singh to Najibullah, FOUR, 137.6kph, full toss following a backing away batter. Flicked away off the inner half and the ball runs away to the long leg fence
Washington Sundar to Karim Janat, FOUR, 101kph, overcorrects and bowls this well wide of off. Karim Janat stays in his crease to stab it past extra cover. 13 runs off the penultimate over!
Washington Sundar to Karim Janat, FOUR, cheeky shot! Fired around leg and Karim Janat gets down low to play a wristy sweep shot over short fine leg
Washington Sundar to Najibullah, no run, dropped! 86.7kph, slower and shorter, slapped hard off the back foot and it’s come off the lower part of the bat. Washington Sundar dives to his right and gets a hand on it. The ball doesn’t stick. Tough chance
Washington Sundar to Najibullah, FOUR, 94.3kph, length ball from round the wicket and Najibullah stays back to lift it over the bowler’s head. Very good timing!
Mukesh Kumar to Nabi, out Caught by Rinku Singh!! The plan works! Longer boundary and India wanted Nabi to hit that side. Fullish delivery outside off, Nabi throws his arms at it and slices it over point. Rinku Singh comes in from deep point to take a low catch with both hands. End of a very good knock from Nabi. Replays show that it would have been wided had the batter shouldered arms. Nabi c Rinku Singh b Mukesh Kumar 42(27) [4s-2 6s-3]
Mukesh Kumar to Azmatullah, out Bowled!! Dragged on! The 68-run stand has been broken. 133.7kph, seam-up, fuller than a length outside off, Azmatullah bends his back leg to carve it through the off-side. Only manages to get an inside edge and he deflects it back onto his sticks. Azmatullah b Mukesh Kumar 29(22) [4s-2 6s-1]
Mukesh Kumar to Nabi, SIX, back-to-back sixes! Dug in short by Mukesh Kumar, Nabi uses the bowler’s angle to muscle the pull over deep midwicket. Hardly any bounce or pace to trouble the batter
Mukesh Kumar to Nabi, SIX, top shot from Nabi! Shortish ball at 134.6kph, Nabi stands tall, clears his front leg and generates the power to slap it over deep extra cover
Mukesh Kumar to Azmatullah, 1 run, low full toss, meant to be the yorker, wristed to long-on. Fifty partnership!
Ravi Bishnoi to Nabi, FOUR, through the off-side now. Bishnoi overcorrects and bowls it short. Nabi sees that coming. Backs away and scythes through backward point
Ravi Bishnoi to Nabi, FOUR, Nabi moves leg-side and swings this non-turner over midwicket. Expertly finds the gap between long-on and deep midwicket. 100 up for Afghanistan!
Ravi Bishnoi to Azmatullah, SIX, 94.6kph, Azmatullah gets down on one leg and slogsweeps. Another googly, just a hint of spin and Azmatullah dragged it over cow corner for a 91m six
Ravi Bishnoi to Nabi, SIX, 97.2kph, fuller ball around off, no spin, Nabi clears his front leg and bludgeons it over long-on for an 87m six
Shivam Dube to Azmatullah, FOUR, 128.4kph, width served and Azmatullah punishes. The length is on the fuller side and Azmatullah flays the drive through extra cover. Excellent timing and the ball speeds away to the fence
Shivam Dube to Azmatullah, 1 run, 128.7kph, fuller than a length, Azmatullah plays an aerial drive. Rohit, at short cover, times his jump well for a one-handed catch, but the ball doesn’t stick. Will go down as a chance!
Ravi Bishnoi to Azmatullah, FOUR, shot! Bishnoi slightly overpitches outside off and Azmatullah pounces. Leans across with a bent back leg and drives firmly through cover. Generates power using his bottom hand
Axar to Rahmat, out Bowled!! Chopped on! Axar has a second and India are all over Afghanistan now – pushed through flatter and quicker, Shah backed away on the cut, but he’s cramped for room, gets an under-edge and drags it back onto his off-stump. The zing bails light up and India have struck thrice in quick succession. The players will take drinks at the fall of the wicket. Rahmat b Axar 3(6)
Shivam Dube to Ibrahim Zadran, out Caught by Rohit!! One brings two for India and Afghanistan have lost both openers now. Was a back of a length delivery on off, looked like it slightly stopped onto the right-hander, Zadran was through with the back-foot punch and offered a tame catch to the Indian captain at cover. Too soft a dismissal and Zadran walks away in disappointment. Ibrahim Zadran c Rohit b Shivam Dube 25(22) [4s-2 6s-1]
Axar to Gurbaz, out Stumped!! Sharp work from Jitesh Sharma and Axar has broken through for India – Axar dragged the length back and followed Gurbaz as he came running down the pitch, beaten in the flight and by Axar’s guile, Gurbaz hopelessly swung across the line and missed – Jitesh Sharma does well to follow the line of the ball and then effects a simple stumping. Gurbaz st Jitesh Sharma b Axar 23(28) [4s-2 6s-1]
Axar to Gurbaz, SIX, lovely, tossed up and angling back into the right-hander – Gurbaz gets a big stride across, uses Axar’s pace and then sweeps it over backward square leg, went soaring over the ropes
Washington Sundar to Ibrahim Zadran, SIX, beautifully played, too full and sliding onto the pad s- Zadran leans across, brings the bottom-hand into play and then whiplashes it over mid-wicket, went sailing over the ropes
Mukesh Kumar to Ibrahim Zadran, FOUR, nicely played, short and wide of off – Zadran waits on it, uses the pace on the ball and ramps it over the keeper’s head for a boundary
Axar to Ibrahim Zadran, FOUR, nicely played, tad too full and just outside off – Zadran backs away, opens the face of the bat and then beats backward point to his left with the drive
Arshdeep Singh to Ibrahim Zadran, 1 run, a mistimed drive and Dube has spilled the catch, on a good length and just outside off – extra bounce and Zadran mistimed the drive, hit high on the bat and spooned towards mid-off – the ball was dying onto him, but Dube did well to reach it, got both hands and let the ball burst out
Arshdeep Singh to Gurbaz, FOUR, cheeky and four, banged in short and well wide of off – Gurbaz rides the bounce, uses the pace on the ball and then steers it over short third man, almost went all the way, bouncing in front of the ropes
Mukesh Kumar to Gurbaz, FOUR, that’s a proper slug and Gurbaz breaks the sequence of dots with a boundary – fuller length delivery on off and he went hard on the drive, dragged it off the inner half and found the gap wide of mid-wicket for a boundary
