3.1 to Rahmanullah Gurbaz, nicked and gone! Gurbaz's struggles come to an end, and Rohid brings out the Cristiano Ronaldo 'Siuu' celebration! Back of a length, pitching on off and decking away with the angle. Gurbaz goes feeling for it very, very tentatively and does not account for the movement or the extra lift. Gets a healthy edge and the keeper, moving to his right, makes no mistake. UAE have something to show for their early pressure!. 16/1 14.2 to Darwish Rasooli, soft dismissal, and Rohid has another! Probably a change-up, banged into the track outside off. Rasooli tries to flat-bat it but the lack of pace (or the hold in the surface) does for him. Does not generate any power whatsoever and chips it straight to D'Souza at extra cover!. 120/3 | ||||||||||

12.2 to Sediqullah Atal, feathered through to the keeper, and Atal perishes! Back of a length in the channel. A bit of deviation away and that does the trick for Saghir. Atal looks to dab it behind point but all he manages is a fine edge through to Chopra. Saghir is delighted, and Atal walks back after a tone-setting 54!. 100/2 17.4 to Ibrahim Zadran, sliced straight to short third, and Saghir has something to smile about! Full outside off and Zadran's eyes light up. He tries to crash it over the off side but in that process, loses his shape a little. Cuts across it a touch too much and the ball spirals towards Siddique, who snares the chance. A vital knock, but take nothing away from Zadran, who has put Afghanistan on course for a 180-plus score!. 160/4 | ||||||||||

1.5 to Muhammad Zohaib, popped to short extra cover, and Zohaib has to go! Slanted in very full on leg stump. Zohaib wants to work to leg but falls across too early. Loses his balance and plays much earlier than he would have wanted to as well. The ball loops up off the leading edge and Zadran does the rest. Farooqi on the board early!. 15/1 | ||||||||||

9.4 to Muhammad Waseem, another miscue, and Waseem's luck has run out! Enormous moment in this contest! Fizzed in on a shortish length on middle and off. Waseem shimmies around before settling just outside off. He heaves across the line but the ball holds in the surface just enough to take the top edge. Mujeeb settles under it at short fine leg and gobbles up the chance, much to Afghanistan and their fans' delight!. 90/3 15.3 to Saghir Khan, taken acrobatically on the fence, and UAE are falling apart now! Tossed up into the slot outside off. Saghir plants his front foot and gets a good chunk of it. Hits it flat but in the general direction of Omarzai, who skips around to his right and then hopes into the air to pouch an excellent catch to his right. UAE seven down now!. 112/7 17.1 to Haider Ali, holes out to long off, and Ashraf has his third! Throws out the invite outside off and Haider cannot resist the temptation. He swings at it but does not get a hold of it. Arrows it straight down Nabi's throat, and UAE lose their eighth wicket!. 122/8 | ||||||||||

8.1 to EC D'Souza, massive lbw shout, and the finger goes up! Fizzed in full on middle stump. D'Souza, rather ambitiously, looks to reverse-sweep it off his stumps. He seems to miss it and gets rapped in front. Rashid's appeal was vociferous and the umpire obliged. D'Souza's reaction, however, suggests he may have gotten a bit of glove to it. Might need replays to confirm that but for now, Afghanistan break through!. 76/2 10.1 to Asif Khan, off stump knocked back, and Asif is outta here! This is Rashid Khan at his absolute best. Googly fizzed through on a fullish length just outside off. Asif wants to smash this into next week but fails to read the wrong'un. Plays well outside the line, leaving a huge gap between bat and pad. The ball bursts through and pegs back off stump. UAE lose another big wicket, and Afghanistan are turning the screw here!. 91/4 14.6 to D Parashar, nicked and gone! And Rashid becomes the outright leading wicket-taker in T20I history! All of 26 years old, and Rashid, the Afghanistan skipper, continues to push boundaries! Fizzed through full just outside off. Parashar plants his front foot and swings for the hills. Does not seem to pick the leg-spinner, though, given he was aiming over long on. A faint edge and snaffled up sharply by Ishaq behind the stumps!. 111/6 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 0 | 9 | 1 | 4.50 | 6 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | |
13.5 to H Kaushik, goes a mile up, and straight into Noor's palms! Shortish on middle and leg, and Nabi uses the two-paced nature of the surface to his advantage. Kaushik, shaping to pull, shanks it terribly and Noor, on as a sub and stationed at deep mid wicket, completes the catch comfortably!. 107/5 | ||||||||||
