Afghanistan vs Pakistan 2019 Match 36 Full Commentary

FOUR! Mohammad Amir to Mujeeb Ur Rahman. Length ball, middle stump backing away driving, outside edge in the air uncontrolled past third man for 4 runs. The outside edge gives Afghanistan another boundary. Amir has been unlucky today, he has bowled well for most of his spells and is unfortunate not to pick up a wicket.

FOUR! Mohammad Amir to Samiullah Shinwari. Length ball, off stump on the front foot pulling, bottom edge past fine leg for 4 runs. Shinwari takes a big swing at an Amir delivery and finds the bottom edge of the bat it rolls all the way to the rope down at fine leg.

FOUR! Mohammad Amir to Rashid Khan. Length ball, to leg moves in front working, well timed past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. The helicopter shot from Khan brings up a much needed boundary. Khan just needs to play his shots, that's the best chance they have of getting 240 plus.

FOUR! Gulbadin Naib to Imad Wasim. Full toss, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed past deep extra cover for 4 runs. An absolute thriller has ended with a four from the hero Imad Wasim. A much needed batting display from him who anchored the team and scored at the rate which was required. Commiserations to Afghanistan who looked at one point to have won this game, but some power hitting from Wahab changed the momentum of the game in favour of Pakistan. In the context of the World Cup this is big, because now England need to win at least one of their two games to qualify and with both of them games against top four opposition they will struggle to get a victory in either. As for Afghanistan there should be some proud players out there, with Nabi and Mujeeb restricting the Pakistan batting with disciplined bowling, they have something to build on here. What a great game of cricket that was!

FOUR! Rashid Khan to Wahab Riaz. Googly half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed past deep cover for 4 runs. Wahab smokes the googly through cover for four he is as cool as ice right now, and looking to get Pakistan home.

FOUR! Rashid Khan to Shadab Khan. Leg spinner length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, outside edge in the air uncontrolled past third man for 4 runs. Shadab edges one fine past the keeper for four, it's all starting to go Pakistan's way. Can Afghanistan sway it in their favour?

FOUR! Gulbadin Naib to Imad Wasim. Length ball, outside off stump on the back foot cutting, well timed past deep backward point for 4 runs. Naib gives Imad some width and length which allows him to cut the ball powerfully away to the boundary, this over has been a nightmare for the Afghanistan captain.

FOUR! Gulbadin Naib to Imad Wasim. Slower ball half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, outside edge in the air uncontrolled past third man for 4 runs. Naib bowls this one wide again and Imad lets his hands go at it and finds an outside edge, a very costly over so far for Afghanistan.

FOUR! Gulbadin Naib to Imad Wasim. Full toss, wide outside off stump on the front foot slog sweeping, well timed past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. A wide full toss from Naib and Imad smacks it away to the leg-side boundary, Pakistan are not out of it yet!
