Six runs from the last two overs and the pressure was building up on the Pakistan batters. Something had to give and Iftikhar Ahmad went for the big hit over mid-wicket! Fareed Ahmad's pace probably did not allow him to connect properly and he is holed out. Ahmad is for 30. PAK: 87/4 after 15.3 overs | REQ: 9.56 | Pakistan need 43 runs in 27 balls
Mujeeb to Shadab Khan and the batter goes for the hoick but cannot connect. But what follows is a hilarious moment!
The slog connects and Nabi is out of the ground! That's gone 97 meters. Score after 12 overs, PAK: 72/3
At the halfway mark, Pakistan are stumbling as Indian hopes flicker. Drinks are on the field now. This match is delicately poised. Afghanistan are certainly not letting down on their intensity. Shadab Khan and Iftikhar Ahmed have a job to do for Pakistan. Afghanistan's bowlers doing a fantastic job, especially spinners! Interesting end ahead. Score after 10 overs, PAK: 52/3
Just as we were saying Rashid Khan strikes and removes the dangerous Mohammad Rizwan. The batter goes for the review and the impact was in front of middle and ball-tracking shows it to be hitting leg-stump. This is a massive moment in the game and the pressure is building on Pakistan. Score after 9 overs, PAK: 48/3
Iftikhar and Rizwan hold fort for Pakistan after they lost 2 early wickets inside the powerplay. There's plenty of energy in the field by Afghanistan but they know Rizwan is the key wicket. Rashid Khan, right-arm leg break, comes into the attack. Score after 6 overs, PAK: 35/2
Zaman wanted a quick run after defending it in front of cover but Najibullah was quicker on his feet and and hit the bulls eye at the bowler's end. Score after 4 overs, PAK: 20/2
Fazalhaq Farooqi traps Babar in front. The ball kept a bit low. Babar Azam falls early for a golden duck. This is the fourth time in a row he has been out early! Pakistan suffer an early blow.

130 should be an easy chase for Pakistan unless the Afghanistan spinners can pull off something special. Rizwan and Babar Azam are at the crease. Rizwan is on strike. Fazalhaq Farooqi will open the attack
Pakistan restrict Afghanistan to 129/6 | A clinical bowling display from Pakistan led by Haris Rauf!
FOUR! An attempted yorker from Naseem Shah, lands as a low full-toss, just outside off, Azmatullah slices with an open face wide of backward point and beats sweeper cover too. 10 balls to go
The Afghanistan fans and especially Najibullah Zadran’s would have gone into a flashback mode when Zadran walloped the legspinner Shadab Khan for a six over square-leg. Almost an action replay of what transpired in the last T20 world cup. A googly, full and on the leg stump line, was swept for a six. Then and now.
But Shadab had a few tricks up the sleeve, aided by memory perhaps. Back then, he had slipped a googly around the off and middle line and had Zadran edging a poke to the keeper.
He went for the same ball again and almost had his man, caught by the keeper Mohammad Rizwan again, but the ball just about missed the edge.
Immediately he began to crank up the pace on his googlies and leg breaks and the troubles continued for Zadran. The pace kept increasing - alternating from 80’s to 90’s. Then off the final delivery of the over came a 111kmph full ball that had Zadran hole out to long-on. Shadab raised his arms up and looked up to the skies. Deja-vu in Dubai.

GONE!!! Getting bad to worse for Afghanistan as their captain has to depart for a golden duck. The Naseem Shah delivery goes straight through him. Not the 100th game Nabi would have envisioned. AFG 91/5 after 14.1 overs
That's a six!!!! First six of the innings. Najibullah poses exactly that kind of a threat. Pakistan need to be wary. Shadab Khan gets hit for his first 6 of the tournament. And that's gone!!!! Najibullah goes for another big one and holes out to Fakhar Zaman. AFG 91/4 after 14 overs
Nawaz strikes again as Janat goes for a big shot which gets the elevation but not the required distance. Fakhar Zaman is underneath and it lands safely in his palm. AFG 79/3 after 11.3 overs
Haris Rauf in to bowl the 11th and is promptly pushed for a boundary by Zadran. Just the restart Afghanistan wanted after the break. Just 1 from the remaining 5 balls though. Pakistan won't complain. AFG 77/2 after 11 overs.
