Pakistan (148/5) defeat Afghanistan (147/6) by 5 wickets after another late blitz by Asif Ali

[silentkiller187]

Asif bradman butler Ali needs to play it cool here plenty of balls left

 

[sharmaji]

The Shoaib Malik-Asif Ali duo to finish it for Pak, once again.

 

[castortroy]

Babar had no idea against Rashid

 

[daytrader]

Another fruitful innings by Babar. Good to see the captain leading from the front

 

[Kianig89]

Dropped

 

[imshally81]

Dropped....
Very difficult

 

[Amjid Javed]

2 boundaries needed in this over

 

[Major]

Naveen stopped a boundary maybe

 

[Kianig89]

Are AfG favourites now

 

[Rana]

Pakistan are not ruthless enough

 

[Ozeirk]

Are AfG favourites now

You're an idiot

 

[Inswing]

Need a boundary rn

 

[Major]

Play sensibly

no. time to hit shots and finish it

 

[Kianig89]

Can we chase 3 I'n a row

 

[Adijazz1706]

Afghanistan vs Pakistan games are too close in the last few years

 

[Rana]

20 from 12 isn’t going to be easy

 

[Inswing]

Great ball by naveen.

 

[silentkiller187]

Boundary minimum needed of last 2 balls

 

[Kianig89]

5 down

 

[Inswing]

Malik OUT

 

[ARK Rafay]

Babar you shouldn't have done that. Game looks 50-50 now

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

That could be game over. Don't see anyone else getting these runs.

 

[Major]

Damn malik, well bowled naveen.

But till asif is there, it wont be an issue

 

[silentkiller187]

Get Hassan Ali in to redeem himself

 

[hamzie]

damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
got through ind and NZ but cant afg

 

[Smbhayi]

Malik gone..

 

[Amjid Javed]

pakistan chocking here

 

[Nasty Naz]

What a horrific over. Just terrible stuff against a rubbish bowler.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Babar you shouldn't have done that. Game looks 50-50 now

Wtaf was that. Misbah masterclass

 

[Adijazz1706]

Afghans favourites now )

 

[Inswing]

This is all babar fault.

 

[Kianig89]

Babar Azam what pathetic shot was that

 

[ARK Rafay]

Will Imad Wasim win again for Pakistan?

 

[imshally81]

What a match

 

[castortroy]

Pak middle order to weak to win this tournament

 

[Rana]

The first thing they need is a boundary on this last ball

 

[sharmaji]

We are in for a thriller! Two new batters at crease. 24 to win in 13 balls.

 

[TeamPak95]

Afghanistan are the literal definition of a two-headed monster. Perhaps one head slightly bigger than the other.

 

[Inswing]

Are we really bottle against afghanistan?

 

[Devadwal]

That could be game over. Don't see anyone else getting these runs.

Asif Butler Ali
Imad

 

[IMMY69]

MLik showing us why he can't play medium pace

 

[Kianig89]

Asif bevan refused a single

 

[Major]

pakistan chocking here

no they are not. Afghanistan played good cricket here. NAveed bowled well.

 

[Rana]

You still have so many clean strikers but we send in Shadab

Why??!

 

[emranabbas]

Congratulations Afghanistan

 

[RexRex]

Good catch by Yokozuna.

 

[Nasty Naz]

Why is Shadab in...

 

[silentkiller187]

Why is asif not running 2 overs left

 

[ARK Rafay]

Wow Shadab Khan ahead of Imad and Hasan Ali.

 

[Ozeirk]

Babar shot will haunt us

 

[TeamPak95]

And Malik gets out.. great

 

[Aman]

This group is interesting if Afghanistan win because I'm almost certain they're beating us.

They could get first place if they beat India as well.

 

[Devadwal]

Lol why he denied that single. Still 12 ball left

 

[srh]

Should have played 1 aggressive opener at least to take advantage of first 6 overs

 

[Inswing]

Why asif didnt run?

 

[castortroy]

Babar suicidal shot has potentially cost the game

 

[Major]

Asif Ali didnt take single because from that end the boundary is shorter

 

[uzairmanzoor13]

Afghanistan is likely to win now. 2 runs in that over. This is terrible stuff from Malik tbh.

 

[sharmaji]

Asif Ali, Imad, Shadab, Hassan Ali are all capable batters.

That could be game over. Don't see anyone else getting these runs.

 

[Rana]

What a useless umpire

What was the need of sending it up?

 

[Kianig89]

Michael Vaughan are you watching

 

[Smbhayi]

Asif Ali saying I'll finish it next over..

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Asif bevan refused a single

Good show of leadership to be honest.

 

[silentkiller187]

Surely asif can’t win us 2 games in a row

 

[Adijazz1706]

Asif confident of dispatching Karim let's see what happens

 

[Inswing]

Terrible from both malik and babar.

 

[cric_4life]

Afghanistan is taking this one home..

 

[Nasty Naz]

It is so dumb to Shadab in. It makes literally zero sense.

You have Imad & Hasan. Both are better strikers and Imad gives you a lefty righty combo.

 

[silentkiller187]

66666

 

[Major]

That is why asif never rannn

 

[Inswing]

Already make ASIF ALI president.

 

[Kianig89]

Asif Hussey

 

[hamzie]

bring it home aliiiiiiiiiiii

 

[Aman]

This Asif guy is good, seems to hit 6s at will.

 

[Smbhayi]

Lol Afgychoking here..

 

[imshally81]

6666

 

[silentkiller187]

Again u beautyy

 

[Major]

Another one by asifff

 

[hamzie]

[Nasty Naz]

Wow Asif. Amazing striking here.
