15.2 to Samiullah Shinwari, Another one pitched up, almost a yorker-length ball and the batsman slogged it across the line, almost like he was trying to hit it to the square-leg. Missed it completely and the timber is disturbed.. 106/5
19.3 to Mohammad Nabi, Tries to slog it again but the slash goes to the cover fielder and is neatly caught.. 140/9
19.6 to Izatullah Dawlatzai, Yorker and this is too good for a lower-order batsman. The ball sneaks through and the stumps are castled. Afghanistanare bowled out for 146 in their 20 overs.. 146/10
302709.0053010
403117.7582030
18.4 to Gulbadin Naib, Given out after a long thought! It was a length ball and Shahzad tried to flick it. Hit him on his pad and it looked like it was probably going down the leg-side. But the umpire thought long before raising his finger. Four down now.. 128/7
401634.0090010
6.3 to Karim Sadiq, Another slower one and the batsman needed to make all the pace. Sadiq went for the slog but could not get the middle of the bat.The top-edge popped up for a simple catch.. 57/1
8.4 to Javed Ahmadi, Bowled! That one came in and kept slightly low to give Burger his second wicket. Both openers have now been sent back to the pavillion.. 70/2
12.2 to Mohammad Shahzad, Given out after a long thought! It was a length ball and Shahzad tried to flick it. Hit him on his pad and it looked like it was probably going down the leg-side. But the umpire thought long before raising his finger. Four down now.. 90/4

0.1 to R van Schoor, Bowled him! It swung in a tad and the batsman looked to be going for a drive that early. Theball sneaks through and the tournament's top-scorer is gone for no score!. 0/1
0.5 to G Snyman, Gone this time! This was definitely an edge and the wicket-keeper dived to his right to snatch an excellent take. The ball deviated away from the bat who tried to drive away from the body. Got only the outside part of the bat.. 1/2
2.2 to CG Williams, Pitched up and drilled to the covers. But Mohammad Nabi jumps to his left and pulls off a good catch! Three wickets for Zadran, three for Afghanistan.. 13/3
402546.25122032
3.5 to LP van der Westhuizen, Short ball and the batsman vd Westhuizen did not get any timing on it. He was far too late with the pull and the edge goes straight up and down into the wicket-keeper's hands. Four down and in bit of a trouble.. 18/4
15.6 to C Viljoen, Bowled him! Pitched right and with the required-rate touching 14, he had no option but to attempt that hoick that he did. Unfortunately for him, it sneaks through and the timber is all over the place.. 90/7
17.2 to MG Erasmus, Bowled him! It is amazing that it took them so long toattempt something different. Tried to scoop it over fine-leg but he only managed to guide it to his stumps.. 96/8
17.5 to L Klazinga, Yorker and bowled! Full ball and it was as straight as it could get, most number 10 batsmen would have found it difficult to play that.. 98/9
402716.75124010
12.3 to SF Burger, Slower one I think and the batsman seems to be early in his shot. He swung across the line and the ball spooned up. It was well-taken in the end given that the ball went only up to the mid-on region and the fielder had to run from long-on to hold on to it.. 65/6
