Afghanistan vs Scotland, 2nd Match, First Round Group B at Nagpur, , Mar 08 2016 - Ball by Ball Commentary

excellent yorker, squeezed to midwicket

pulled but straight to deep square leg

as far as effort deliveries go, this should be right up there. Pacy bouncer angled into the body, the batsman has no room to work with, gets a bit of glove on it as the ball flies over Shahzad's head, looks like he also got a touch on that as he leaped high, took the pace off for third man to stop it

looks to pull, too late on the stroke, hit high on the bat, bowler runs across to collect the ball, doesn't bother firing a throw at the bowler's end

slower one, this time he dabs it down towards third man, excellent dive by Noor Ali, desperation saves a couple of runs. Didn't have the pace to run away

rip roaring bouncer, looks to pull but is beaten for pace, good take by the keeper. 137 clicks that

flat hit but straight to long-off

swung across the line, can only slice it to the point fielder. The pressure has got to him, he simply had to tee off. Afghanistan wold believe they are into the home stretch. Industrious innings, but couldn't bring out the big hits when he had to

worked across the line towards deep midwicket, they scamper back for the second, but had to use every ounce of his energy to complete it, he's left panting in the end

backs away, but Nabi fires it full and wide outside off, couldn't reach out for it in the end, just a touch outside the wide line, as replays suggest. Lucky to get away

backs away and the bowler follows him by firing it down leg, whipped towards wide long on, the fielder chose the wrong end, but Afghanistan won't mind singles and twos here

flat hit to the man at the edge of the circle at mid-off

flicked towards deep midwicket, the throw was full at the keeper's end, maybe he would have been better off firing a flat one on the bounce, lost a second or two by throwing it full, by which time the batsman dived back in full stretch

excellent stroke, much-needed too. Walked across, it was right in the slot for him to swung, he gave it a mighty thwack to the legcutter and generated enough power as he hit it straight over the bowler's head for a maximum

superb yorker, not much room for the batsman to work with, somehow squeezes it past the bowler, long-on fielder switched off for a split second, enough for them to steal a second. Shahzad is clearly not happy with that effort

another scoop, another miss. Bowler saw him attempting the stroke and fired it full and wide

looked to play the dilscoop, changed his mind and played a delicate dab down to third man instead

excellent yorker, full and tailing away from middle, can only get it as far as the cover fielder

steps out and works it towards deep midwicket

low full toss, looks to clear cover, can't get any power or timing, just lands short of the fielder there
