Yes, great isn't it, literally started as soon as the Cardiff game ended

Day Night game , so should take us through to Sehri nicely.

13/1 in 5.1 Overs Afghanistan.

Slow start , Afghanistan missing Mohammad Shahzad.

 

[gishy]

Wicket!

Jason Holder bowls a wide one yet Noor Ali manages to get a ticket and he's gone.

13-1 off 5.1

Which channel is it on?

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Is this a test match or limited overs game? Why are they playing in colours?

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Match in the balance as Rashid removes 2 with his first 2 balls.

WI need 143 from 26 overs with 6 wickets in hand.

Rashid has 9 overs left.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Rashid has 3 wickets in 1.3 overs.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Holy crap.

1.4 overs and 4 wickets.

He is humiliating WI.

West Indies in deep trouble against Afghanistan

Rashid Khan has now taken 4 wickets in his first 2 overs..they have put pressure on themselves by scoring so slowly.

 

[GenericBrand]

WI were bound to struggle against Rashid after struggling against Shadab

 

[DRsohail]

yess

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Five for Rashid.

Almost over.

WI 7 down.

With more then 100 left.

 

[Savak]

And we lost a T-20, ODI and a Test match to this WI team? Our low rankings in T-20's, ODI's and Test matches is perfectly justified.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Afghanistan lost the T20
3-0
So if they win this will be a welcome victory.

The WI commentators don't know what has hit them. They think their team is world class and feel too good to be playing associates.

 

[MMHS]

Looks like Champions Trophy isn't missing WI much!!!!

 

[leatherface58]

Afghans are improving exponentially. At this rate, they should become a mid table side (Ranked 5th-7th) in like 5 years.

 

[JaDed]

So much for the rankings not being stable according to some posters.

After looking at the highlights, WI cant read or play googly. Like they didnt even try to play it, just stayed back and kept missing rashid's googlies. 5 of his wicket were from googlies.

 

[Joseph Gomes]

West Indies are minnows, time to demote them to associate status

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Well done Afg brothers. Love you guys. Congratulations. Win the series.

Link to highlights?

 

[Khwaja]

Rashid is too overrated. 7 wickets against WI is NOTHING. Stop overhyping him.. he's a below average associate player... He has no skill against a quality side, he will be worse than Wahab Riaz playing against india..
