- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR42.4 Another one bites the dust and this time it is the centurion Atal who departs. Was a back of a length ball outside off. Atal backs away looking to go over cover. He instead ends up slicing it with the ball going to Ngarava at deep third, who makes no mistake. Nyamhuri exults. 228/434.6 Malik throws his wicket away! Clever piece of bowling from Nyamhuri. Bowls a slower delivery, length ball around middle stump angling in, Malik charges down to hit this across and completely misses it. Ball crashes onto his leg stump after going past under his edge. But what an innings this was from the opener. Zimbabwe finally get a wicket in the 35 over 191/138.6 Nyamhuri gets his second! Bowls a short length ball on leg stump, Omarzai is a bit early on his pull shot towards deep backward square leg and gets beaten on pace. Ngarava runs in and dives in front to complete the catch 210/240.3 In the air... and taken. Good short delivery from Gwandu. Banged in around off stump, Rahmat goes for a pull, doesn't connect cleanly and Bennett running in from deep square leg takes a good catch diving forward 213/348.5 Straight down long-off's throat. Slower length ball outside off. Nabi was looking to go downtown over long-off. Gets it right off the toe end of the bat and Ervine takes a comfortable catch moving to his left 275/549.6 And a wicket to end things. Banged in short on middle. Alikhil is late on the pull and mistimes to the left of mid-on where Raza puts in a dive and takes a sharp catch 286/6Extras40 (b 6, lb 10, w 24)TOTAL286/6 (50 Overs, RR: 5.72)Fall of wickets: 1-191 (Abdul Malik, 34.6 ov), 2-210 (Azmatullah Omarzai, 38.6 ov), 3-213 (Rahmat Shah, 40.3 ov), 4-228 (Sediqullah Atal, 42.4 ov), 5-275 (Mohammad Nabi, 48.5 ov), 6-286 (Ikram Alikhil, 49.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.6 Is he gone? Looks like it. Excellent throw from Shahidi. Curran has already started walking back. Afghanistan are celebrating. Full length delivery on off stump, taps this to mid on gently and takes off. But Shahidi's quick throw at non-striker's end means Curran is well short of the crease 0/1Extras0TOTAL2/1 (1.6 Overs, RR: 0.92)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Ben Curran, 0.6 ov)
