PAK vs AFG Live Cricket Score

12 OUT! Soft dismissal for Shah! He is distraught and is staring down the pitch. Imad Wasim has outfoxed the batsman here. He darted a few arm balls before bowling a delivery that straightens a bit from middle and off. Rahmat tries to flick thinking it's coming into him but it doesn't and takes the leading half of his blade. The ball lobs up to short cover where Babar Azam takes the simplest of catches. A good little knock comes to an end! 57/3

4.4 OUT! Caught behind! Shaheen gets his revenge. He serves a very full delivery outside off at 138 kph and Naib spots the opportunity to play yet another drive through the line. He goes hard at it but this time fails to middle his shot. It goes past his bat, Sarfaraz collects the ball and they go up in a huge appeal. The umpire though is not interested. Sarfaraz then has a chat with his players before signalling for the DRS. The Ultra Edge detects a spike. Naib departs after a quick knock. 27/1

4.5 OUT! Cricket, you beauty. What a leveller! 10 runs conceded off the first three balls and now two wickets in two balls. What a great fightback from the young man. Shaheen spears in a very full ball around middle and leg at 137 kph, Shahidi tries flicking but closes the face of the bat early. It pops out of the leading edge towards mid off where Imad Wasim moves across to his left to take the catch safely. Shaheen on a hat-trick now. 27/2

27 OUT! Ikram Ali Khil holes out. Imad tosses it up on middle, Ikram comes down the track and looks to go over long on. He gets a good amount of height on it but not the distance. The ball goes straight down the throat of Hafeez at long on. The experienced man in the deep makes no mistake. Ikram's gritty knock comes to an end. He had taken his time out in the middle and just when he was looking to accelerate, he departs. 125/5

25.2 OUT! Afghan is bowled! Shadab dishes out a leg spinner around off, at 87 kph, Afghan shimmies down the track for a big shot but fails to make any contact. The ball doesn't turn much after landing and tickles the off stump. The attacking field set probably prompted Afghan to have a real go at it. But he is undone here due to his own aggression. The 64-run stand has been broken. Afghan hit the leg spinner at a strike rate of 129.41 and it's a sweet revenge for Shadab. 121/4

36.4 OUT! Nabi is bounced out! A well-judged catch in the deep by Mohammad Amir. Wahab digs in a short ball on middle, Nabi attempts to wheel a pull shot but gets a top edge. It flies high in the air, Amir moves across to his left from fine leg and takes a fine catch by going down low. Wahab is ecstatic as his plan to bowl short has worked. Another blow to Afghanistan. A good looking partnership of 42 runs is cut short. 167/6

44.4 OUT! Drags it on! Third wicket for Shaheen again! He angles in a length ball around off at 137 kph, Zadran tries to power it through the line but gets a thick inside edge onto the pads. It then deflects onto the stumps. Shaheen is off in his celebration. 202/7

46.4 OUT! Caught! Shaheen gets his fourth of the game and he is having a blast! Slower ball on off, Rashid gets outfoxed by the change in pace. Khan looks to hit it straight but he is way too early in his shot. Rashid ends up chipping it towards mid off. Fakhar Zaman runs to his left and takes an easy catch. 210/8

48.2 OUT! Bowled! Comes 'round the wicket and bowls a fast yorker on middle and off at 140 kph. This is just too good a ball for the number 10. Hassan is outdone by the pace. The ball goes on to disturb the stumps. Afghanistan once again might not play out their quota of 50 overs here. 219/9

0.2 OUT! LBW! Pakistan not just lose their first wicket but they also lose their review. Flighted ball on off, skidding back in, Fakhar looks to defend but misses. The ball hits him on the pads. The Afghanistan players put in a loud appeal and the umpire agrees with them. Fakhar has a word with Imam and then takes it upstairs. Replays roll in and Ultra Edge shows that the ball has missed the inside edge by just a fraction. Ball Tracker then confirms Zaman is caught dead in front of the stumps. Early setback for the 1992 World Cup champions. 0/1

16 OUT! Stumped! Brilliantly bowled by Nabi. He gives it some extra air and bowls it slower on off. Imam comes down the track and looks to hit it. The ball though spins away from him and Ikram Ali Khil behind the stumps whips the bails off quickly. Imam looks to plonk his bat inside the crease but he is very late. The umpire takes it upstairs but it is a mere formality as Imam does not wait and starts walking back. Once again Imam fails to convert his start. 156 needed off 204 balls. 72/2

17.2 OUT! Bowled 'em! The dangerous Babar is out of here. Nabi tosses it up on leg, Azam looks to sweep but misses. The ball goes straight and disturbs the leg pole. Azam hears the horrible noise of the ball meeting the stumps. Babar was looking so good out in the middle but now he has to walk back. Second wicket for Nabi and Afghanistan have a real chance here to take down Pakistan. 81/3

29.1 OUT! What an inspired bowling change this is! Afghanistan needed wickets and Naib turns to his strike bowler Mujeeb, and he delivers. Shorter outside off, there was hardly any turn on this one. Hafeez goes for the cut but the ball is away from his body, so he has to reach out. Mohammad hits it uppishly and straight to Shahidi. A soft dismissal really. The 40-run stand is broken and once again the match tilts right in the balance. 107 runs more needed. 121/4

35 OUT! Naib wanted his ace bowler to strike and he does so. Rashid has not been at his best but he has given his side a very prized scalp here. Leg break which is quick as well. It is pitching on leg and then proceeds to straighten. Haris looks to defend but misses. The ball hits him flush on the front pad. The Afghanistan players are convinced that they have their man so they put in a convincing appeal. The umpire thinks for a moment and then raises the dreaded finger. Pakistan have no review left so Haris cannot do anything and just head back to the pavilion. Pakistan are in deep trouble here. Their in-form batter is gone now. Ball Tracker is shown later on and it confirms even if Sohail would have reviewed it he would have to go as the decision would have stayed with the on-field umpire. 142/5

39 OUT! RUN OUT! Body blow this for Pakistan. Shorter on off, Sarfaraz strokes it wide of deep point and looks for two. He runs the first one hard and calls for the second. Najibullah Zadran gets to the ball quickly in the deep and releases it close to the stumps at the keeper's end. Sarfaraz puts in a dive but Ikram takes the bails off quickly. The keeper turns to appeal but Sarfaraz knows that he is short. The replays roll in and they confirm the same. Pakistan continue to dig a hole for themselves. 72 needed more off 66 balls. 156/6

46.4 OUT! Shadab is short! A flatter delivery on middle, Khan whips it to deep mid-wicket and attempts for the second run. Naib in the deep runs forward and sends in a bullet throw to the keeper who breaks the stumps as Shadab dives in. They appeal, it's referred upstairs and the replay find Khan short. 50-run stand is broken immediately. 22 needed off 20 balls. 206/7
