Batsman R B 4s 6s SR Rahmanullah Gurbaz Wk 27 22 2 1 122.72

Rahmanullah Gurbaz b Lockie Ferguson

6 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Excellent change of pace from Lockie Ferguson, and he ends the over with a wicket as well. Ferguson bowls this on a good length and on off, rolls his fingers to take the pace off. Rahmanullah Gurbaz gets drawn forward early to block it, but the ball holds up in the surface and nips in as well. It takes the inside edge, deflects onto the pads and then rattles the stumps. Gurbaz departs for 27 off 22, and both the Afghan openers are gone now at the end of the Powerplay. 44/2

Ibrahim Zadran 10 12 1 0 83.33

Ibrahim Zadran c Glenn Phillips b Lockie Ferguson

5.1 OUT! STRAIGHT TO THE FIELDER! Lockie Ferguson comes into the attack and strikes right away. He bangs this hard into the pitch, but outside off. Ibrahim Zadran sees this as a scoring opportunity and throws his hands at it. However, he just fails to handle the extra bounce and ends up hitting it straight to backward point, where Glenn Phillips gobbles it up easily. Zadran walks back for 10 off 12, and Afghanistan are 35/1. 35/1

Gulbadin Naib 63 35 3 4 180

Gulbadin Naib c Tim Seifert b Rachin Ravindra

17.2 OUT! TAKEN! Rachin Ravindra has the last laugh, and the gamble has paid off for Mitchell Santner. Rachin drags his length back slightly, floats it up outside off. Gulbadin Naib goes down for the slog sweep but has to reach out for it a bit. He does not get hold of it as the ball takes the top edge and goes high in the air. Tim Seifert, the keeper, calls for it, moves forward and pouches it safely into his gloves. Naib departs for a fantastic 63 off 35, and Afghanistan are 156/4. Over to Azmatullah Omarzai to provide the finishing touches. 156/4

Sediqullah Atal 29 24 2 0 120.83

Sediqullah Atal c Tim Seifert b Jacob Duffy

14.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! ​Sediqullah Atal departs after playing a good hand of 29 off 24 balls. Slower one, short and around off, Sediqullah Atal winds up for the pull but has to wait due to the lack of pace. He does not go through his shot fully and gets a top edge behind towards the keeper. Tim Seifert takes a couple of steps backwards and holds onto it. The 79-run stand off 51 balls has been broken now. 123/3

Darwish Rasooli 20 13 1 1 153.84

Darwish Rasooli c Glenn Phillips b Matt Henry

18.1 OUT! TAKEN IN THE DEEP! Matt Henry strikes now, and this is exactly what New Zealand wanted at this time. This is short of a length and around middle, Darwish Rasooli looks to take it on and goes for the pull. However, the ball just gets big on him and he fails to get the elevation. It flies flat and straight to deep mid-wicket, where Glenn Phillips takes a good catch. Rasooli walks back for a quick 20 off 13, and the Afghans lose half their side now. 164/5

Azmatullah Omarzai 14 7 0 2 200

Azmatullah Omarzai run out (James Neesham / Lockie Ferguson)

20 OUT! OMARZAI IS RUN OUT! Lockie Ferguson hits the length hard and outside off, Mohammad Nabi punches it towards sweeper cover and turns around for the second run, which they had to as this is the last ball of the innings. James Neesham is quick to collect the ball and throws it at the bowler's end, where Ferguson grabs it and breaks the stumps, with Azmatullah Omarzai trying to drag his bat inside the crease. The smart replays confirm that he is short of his crease. Afghanistan finish on 182/6! 182/6

Mohammad Nabi 10 7 0 1 142.85

Mohammad Nabi not out

Batsman R B 4s 6s SR Tim Seifert Wk 65 42 7 3 154.76

Tim Seifert c Azmatullah Omarzai b Mohammad Nabi

12.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Mohammad Nabi has the last laugh here, and he gets a massive wicket for Afghanistan. This is bowled quicker and shorter, on leg, keeps a bit low. Tim Seifert rocks back to pull it away but gets cramped up. He gets into an awkward position while playing the shot and gets no elevation. It flies straight to deep square leg, where Azmatullah Omarzai comes forward and takes a good catch under pressure. Seifert departs after a well-made 65 off 42, and the Kiwis are four down now. 59 needed off 43 balls. 124/4

Finn Allen 1 2 0 0 50

Finn Allen b Mujeeb Ur Rahman

1.3 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Mujeeb Ur Rahman draws first blood and gets rid of the dangerous Finn Allen. This is pushed through quicker, shortish and on middle, skids through and angles in a bit. Allen rocks back for the pull but this is not that short and he gets rushed, too. The ball goes through and rattles the stumps behind. Allen falls cheaply, and New Zealand are 14/1, chasing 183 runs. 14/1

Rachin Ravindra Rachin Ravindra 1 0 0 0

Rachin Ravindra b Mujeeb Ur Rahman

1.4 OUT! TIMBER! Oh..wow. That is an absolute beauty, and no one can catch Mujeeb Ur Rahman as he is off running in celebration. This is the seam-up ball, full and on middle, just straightens a bit instead of angling in. Rachin Ravindra prods forward to defend but plays down the wrong line and gets hurried too. He leaves enough gap between bat and pad for the ball to go through and shatter the stumps. A golden duck for Rachin, and Mujeeb Ur Rahman is on a hat-trick now. 14/2

Glenn Phillips 42 25 7 1 168

Glenn Phillips b Rashid Khan

9.2 OUT! CHOPPED ON! Rashid Khan strikes and sends Glenn Phillips back to the dugout. The Afghan skipper is very animated in his celebration. Flighted wide outside off, Glenn Phillips backs away and looks to loft this over the covers region but ends up getting an inside edge that goes back onto the stumps. Glenn Phillips departs after playing a good hand of 42 off 25 balls. New Zealand are 88/3, still needing 95 runs in 64 balls. 88/3

Mark Chapman 28 17 2 1 164.70

Mark Chapman c Rashid Khan b Azmatullah Omarzai

15.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Mark Chapman departs after scoring 28 off 17 balls. Slower one, around middle and leg, on a length. Mark Chapman backs away and looks to chip this over the fielder at covers but ends up chipping this straight into the safe hands of Rashid Khan standing inside the ring. NZ still need 28 off 26 balls. 155/5
