2.2 to Rahmanullah Gurbaz, great catch by Tector! He moved and dived full stretch to his right from mid-off, and gobbled it in both hands. Gurbaz fails again, and throws his head up in frustration. He had backed away early, and Adair bowled on a fullish length around sixth stump. Gurbaz threw his bat at it away from his body, and ended up toe-ending a loft to Tector. 14/1 | ||||||||||
| 4 | 0 | 27 | 1 | 6.75 | 11 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 0 | |
16.4 to Mohammad Nabi, swiped to short fine leg! Balbirnie did well to move to his right and take it low. Little bowled on a length, and got it to move back in to finish outside leg. Nabi went swinging, but played it too fine, and found the fielder inside the circle. 116/5 | ||||||||||
| 4 | 0 | 34 | 1 | 8.50 | 5 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 0 | |
18.5 to Rashid Khan, finds deep midwicket! Taken with a reverse cup just above his head. Another shirt delivery from McCarthy, even as this one was a slower ball on middle-and-off line, thus not entirely allowing Rashid the room to swing. Ireland nipping Afghanistan's momentum each time Ibrahim takes them ahead. 142/6 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 0 | 23 | 1 | 7.66 | 7 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 0 | |
7.4 to Azmatullah Omarzai, well taken by Little! He was placed at mid-on, and turned around and started running across after the ball, as Omarzai swiped off the inside half of the bat off this shortish ball around off. 48/3 | ||||||||||
| 1 | 0 | 5 | 1 | 5.00 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 0 | |
6.3 to Sediqullah Atal, punched back to the bowler! Atal looks perplexed with what happened there, having chipped back for Delany to take it in front of his stomach. Delany got this to turn away from a length around off, with the ball finishing outside off. Looked like Atal was early into the shot, with signs of the slowness of the pitch coming into play. 45/2 | ||||||||||
| 4 | 0 | 30 | 1 | 7.50 | 7 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 1 | |
14.1 to Mohammad Ishaq, great catch by Stirling! He was placed at extra cover, and turned around to move straight for a few steps. The ball was lofted miles above, and was dropping over his left shoulder as he tumbled forward to complete the take. White bowled one full around off from the back of his hand, as Ishaq mistimed his attempted loft. 102/4 | ||||||||||

2.4 to PR Stirling, bowled him! Farooqi strikes now. The ball deflected off Stirling's back pad, and went on to hit middle and off. He was standing on leg stump, with his front leg out of the way, but deep in the crease. Farooqi bowled on a length while angling it in. It pitched on middle and zipped through with the angle, as Stirling looked to drive but missed. 15/3 | ||||||||||
| 2.2 | 0 | 10 | 3 | 4.28 | 10 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
1.1 to A Balbirnie, bowled him! There was a lot movement off the pitch, and also some extra bounce. Naveen went wide of the crease, as he so often does, and bowled on a length around sixth stump. Balbirnie punched at it, but the ball moved in sharply to hit the top of leg stump. 9/1 1.2 to LJ Tucker, gone first ball! Naveen on a hat-trick! I think Tucker made this ball look better than it was, but Naveen should get his credit too. Tucker walked down at him, with Naveen bowling on a fullish length, and getting the ball to swing in from wide of off to hit off stump. The last wicket was seam movement, and this is swing. 9/2 17.2 to B White, bowled him! Foxes him with the slower ball. On a length around off, and shaping back in to hit leg stump, as White goes low to try and dab, but misses his attempted swipe. Afghanistan win the series 2-1. 98/10 | ||||||||||

7.3 to HT Tector, gobbled by deep midwicket! Omarzai gets the impactful Tector. On a short of a length just outside off, and moving away. The bounce was good enough for someone even as tall as Tector, who pulled towards the longer side of the ground. 39/4 9.5 to GH Dockrell, another one for Naveen at deep midwicket! Omarzai angled this full ball in, and landed it outside leg. But Dockrell's front leg was out of the way as he clipped aerially, and the ball flew off his bat for another comfortable catch. 46/5 15.1 to MR Adair, chopped on! Omarzai has his third. This was bowled on the shorter side of a length on off, with Adair going for the pull shot. But he seemed to have played too early, as the ball ended up landing on the middle and off stumps from his bottom edge. 91/7 15.5 to BJ McCarthy, spooned back to Omarzai! He has his fourth, as he stretches his hands out to his left to take it. Omarzai bowled on a short of a length, and the ball moved back in towards leg, while also bouncing considerably. McCarthy skipped down the pitch but was cramped for room, as he ended up swatting it back. 93/8 | ||||||||||

16.1 to GJ Delany, ahh, brilliantly taken by Ibrahim! He was placed at long-on, but went across to his right and took the ball low while diving forward. Rashid bowled the legspinner on a full length on off, getting it turn away a bit, as Delany went for the slog sweep. 93/9 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 0 | 26 | 1 | 8.66 | 7 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 0 | |
12.6 to C Campher, taken at long-off! The man there was positioned much straighter than usual, and also right on the edge of the rope. Again Campher gave himself room, with the ball being full and just outside off. He went swiping, and though he timed it well, the ball went exactly where the fielder was placed. 82/6 | ||||||||||
