Description

Pakistan have thrashed India by 10 wickets at the T20 World Cup thanks to an incredible bowling performance by Shaheen Shah Afridi who dismissed KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma during the powerplay.Chasing 152 Pakistan strolled home thanks to 50's from Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam.Sri Lanka continued their good form with a nicely managed run chase as they knocked off 172 with 7 balls to spare. Bangladesh will rue some poor fielding but held their own in the contest.Mohammad Naim (62) and Mushfiqur Rahim (57*) laid the platform for Bangladesh inn contest that had its fiery spells thanks to a wild throw at the stumps by Dushmantha Chameera.Charith Asalanka (80*) was incredible in the chase and gave a sense of security as Sri Lanka won ...yet again.Another matchup of the qualifying teams saw Afghanistan take on the surprise package, Scotland in the only game of the day on Monday. Afghanistan won the toss and decided to have a bat. They made the most of the decision and went on to post 190/4 with contributions coming from all used batters. Hazratullah Zazai and Mohammad Shahzad got them off to a flyer, reaching 54 before Shahzad went 1-ball before the end of the powerplay. They kept the pace up with Rahmanullah Gurbaz 46 (37) and Najibullah Zadran 59 (34). Over the innings, they struck 11 x 6s and made the most of the shorter boundary. In reply, Scotland got off to a good start thanks to George Munsey & Kyle Coetzer, who were not going to hang around! Mujeeb popped up with to claim the all-important 1st wicket to break the partnership and make it 28/1 off 3.2 overs. Callum MacLeod went LBW next ball and he made it 3 wkts in 4 balls when he trapped Richie Berrington in front. An unplayable over from Mujeeb ur-Rahman. Both LBW’s reviewed and were umpires call, clipping leg stump. Excellent bowling but Scotland will feel a little hard done by with the on field decisions. Matthew Cross went for 0 soon after, from a stunning one-handed diving catch from Shahzad behind the stumps off the bowling of Naveen (who had great success in the Vitality Blast with Leicestershire this summer). By the time Munsey went next over – a 4th Mujeeb victim also with umpires call on the impact line - the game was changed and at 36/5. Rashid Khan then rattled through the line-up to dismiss Scotland for just 60 all out and give Afghanistan a mammoth 130-run win, with Mujeeb taking 5/20 off 4 and Rashid Khan 4/9 off 2.2.
