4.2 to Asghar Afghan, great delivery from Sorensen which the batsman tries to play straight to but gets it all wrong and his off-stump is shattered. 18/2
17.2 to Mohammad Nabi, superb diving catch from Wilson after the edge is found by the bowler, all Ireland's bowlers in the wickets here. 48/6
21.6 to Samiullah Shinwari, and this time the outside edge goes to Mooney at fourth slip who makes no mistake and takes the catch. 74/9

12.3 to Javed Ahmadi, Afgahnistan in tatters here as Cusack's swinging delivery beats the batsman all ends up and the stumps are smashed. 37/4
16.3 to Mohammad Shahzad, very fast delivery and the batsman misses and the bowler hits, so much so that he breaks leg-stump in half!. 48/5
18.4 to Najibullah Zadran, another one gone here as again the outside edge is found and it's a smart catch at third slip by White who dropped one earlier. 48/7
20.6 to Gulbadin Naib, and what was looking like a great over for Afghanistan ends with a wicket. Cusack again finds the top of off-stump and the batsman has no answer for it.. 66/8
