Unsurprisingly, Mohammad Nabi is Man of the Match for his knock - his first ton in ODIs. This series has come alive nicely today, and there will be renewed interest in the next match on Tuesday. Your commentator today has been Liam Brickhill, and I hope you've enjoyed my coverage. Look out for my match report in the next few minutes, and do join me again for the third game. Until then, goodbye!

4.55 pm This is more of what many expected from Afghanistan ahead of this series. Mohammad Nabi lead the way with his blazing hundred, which included six towering sixes, and then his team followed that up with a relentless display in the field. There was pace on the new ball, nagging lines and variations from the spinners even from 17-year old debutant legspinner Rashid Khan, and then a textbook display of reverse swing bowling by Dawlat Zadran at the death. Afghanistan have surged to a 58-run win, and it's 1-1 in the series!
