Afghanistan vs India Match Stats

Slower one, on a length and on off, Mohammad Nabi guides it straight to point.

Fiery stuff! Hardik Pandya bangs in a sharp bouncer, on middle, Mohammad Nabi gets surprised by it and misses his pull shot, the ball crashes onto the top of the helmet and lobs behind where Rishabh Pant grabs it and appeals, but it is turned down. A leg bye is taken and there will be a mandatory concussion check now.

SIX! Into the stands! Hardik Pandya bangs this into the pitch again, but this one sits up nicely for the batter, Najibullah Zadran gets into a good positon and whacks it over the deep square leg fence for a biggie.

Hardik Pandya tries to over-compensate and bowls this fuller, but way outside the tramline, Najibullah Zadran lets it go. Wide called!

An appeal for LBW, but the umpire says no! Rohit Sharma after some discussion takes the review. This is pitched up and around middle and leg, shaping in, Najibullah Zadran misses his flick and gets hit on the pads. It looks like pitching outside leg and Ball Tracking confirms that. India lose a review!

Short of a length and on off, Mohammad Nabi pulls it through mid-wicket for one.

Goes fuller again, on middle, Najibullah Zadran backs away but mistimes his drive towards mid off. Afghanistan need 81 runs in the last five overs now!

Attempted heave but badly mistimed! Starts the new spell with a hard-length delivery over the off stump, Mohammad Nabi looks to hang back and take it on but lobs it away over mid on for a single.

OUT! CAUGHT! That one was traveling quickly but Arshdeep Singh makes no mistake and Jasprit Bumrah has his third wicket. Goes full and quick and angles it across from off and middle stump, Najibullah Zadran backs away a fair bit and looks to slap it over point but doesn't quite get the elevation. Arshdeep there springs to his right and pouches it with two hands and that one must have stung the palms. Najibullah Zadran has to walk back though.

FOUR BYES! How has that missed everything? Full and quick again, looking to spear in the yorker at leg stump. Rashid Khan stays back and attempts to jam it out and leaves a gap between the legs. The ball beats the bat and goes between the legs and past the keeper into the fine leg fence.

Good length at the stumps, miscued to the man at mid-wicket. Mohammad Nabi at the other end wants the run but is sent back and a direct hit at the bowler's end keeps him on his toes.

Bowled slower now and into the pitch outside off, Rashid Khan looks to play the upper cut but is well beaten.

Full and at the stumps, Rashid Khan brings out the helicopter but can't get under it and firmly hits it to long on for just a single.

Floated up on the stumps, Rashid Khan punches the ball away wide of long off and picks up a single.

SIX! High and handsome! Tossed up a bit in the slot and around off stump, Mohammad Nabi holds his shape and hammers it just over the long off fence for a biggie.

OUT! TAKEN! High, high and taken in the deep! Flighted delivery, on the stumps and forcing the batter to have a go at it. Mohammad Nabi is forced to hit against the wind and towards the longer part of the ground as he tries to heave it over deep mid-wicket but gets a lot of height and not enough distance. Ravindra Jadeja settles himself just inside the ropes and takes a fine catch to his left.

FOUR! Oh, hello! Flatter one at the stumps, Noor Ahmad brings out the reverse sweep right away and plays it nicely over backward point for a boundary.

This is fired in fuller and on the legs, Noor Ahmad looks for the reverse sweep once again but almost falls over and misses it completely.

Full and around off, pushed to mid off for a quick single.

A pacy delivery on the fuller side around off and angling away, Noor Ahmad stays back and looks to play at it but is late and the ball zips past the outside edge.

Goes fuller now and bowls it wider of the off stump as well, Noor Ahmad stays put and swings across the line, only managing to connect with thin air though.

Comes from around the stumps now and bowls a shorter delivery at the batter, Noor Ahmad gets the pull high on the bat and gets it down to long on for a run.

WIDE! Back to over the wicket now and bowls on a good length but well outside the off stump, Rashid Khan has a slash at it but misses.

OUT! CAUGHT! This is bowled on the fuller side of a length ball and angled well across the off stump. Rashid Khan reaches out, gets under it and knowingly opens the bat face, looking to slice it up and over backward point. The ball is miscued a bit and goes aerial to wide third man where Ravindra Jadeja takes a simple enough catch and Arshdeep Singh also gets his name in the wickets column.

OUT! CAUGHT! Too hot to handle for Naveen-ul-Haq and Arshdeep Singh has got two in two now. Banged in quick and short over middle and leg, rushing onto the batter and at a difficult height. Naveen just swings at it and gets a top edge back over the keeper's head. Rishabh Pant runs back towards short fine leg and pouches it safely. Afghanistan going down in a hurry now.

EDGED AND FOUR! Arshdeep Singh comes agonizingly close to picking up a hat-trick but it ends up being a boundary instead. Pitched up from around the stumps and trying to angle it into the off stump, Fazalhaq Farooqi looks to hang back and block but gets an outside edge that runs past the keeper and into the third man fence.

On a fuller length and around off stump, Noor Ahmad pushes it away towards cover.

A full toss now on the off stump line, Noor Ahmad punches it away straight to the man at covers.

On a length and around off stump again, Noor Ahmad stays put and hits it towards cover again. No single taken!

Back of a length and over middle, Noor Ahmad gets cramped up and mistimes the pull badly towards mid on.

On a good length around off and angling away, Noor Ahmad has a poke at it but gets beaten past the outside edge.

Good stop from the keeper! A smidge fuller, trying to attack the pads but this is spilled down leg. Noor Ahmad gets a bit of pad on it and Rishabh Pant dives across to his left to get his gloves on it. The batters manage to scamper across for a leg bye.

Pitched up on a length and outside off, Noor Ahmad throws his hands at it and slices it up over the cover region and denies the single once again.

Swing and a miss! Bowled full and wide of the off stump with a bit more effort behind it. Noor Ahmad goes across to the off side and throws the kitchen sink at it but fails to connect.

Another miss and Noor Ahmad is just swinging a bit too hard at the ball. Bowled from over the stumps and banged into the deck over of and middle. Noor tries to hang back and pull but misses the ball.

SIX! Noor Ahmad finally connects one and that is a flat six! Banged in short again over middle and leg, Noor gets on top of the bounce and muscles it off the front foot and just over the fence behind deep square leg for a biggie.

Excellent comeback delivery from Arshdeep Singh. Full and quick, nails it in the blockhole around off and Noor Ahmad fails to dig it out.

WIDE! Arshdeep Singh will have to reload the final delivery here. Full and quick again, looking for the wide yorker but this is spilled beyond the tramline for a wide.

WIDE! And again and that's a bit unnecessary from Arshdeep Singh putting it so much effort for nothing. Fuller in length and well outside the off stump, Rishabh Pant springs across to make the save.

OUT! CAUGHT! That's it, Arshdeep Singh gets his third wicket and India bundles out Afghanistan on the final delivery. Arshdeep runs in from over the stumps and pitches the ball up on the fifth stump line, looking to angle it across. Noor Ahmad hangs deep and goes after it trying to go over covers but the ball comes off the toe-end of the bat and doesn't travel much further away from Rohit Sharma at covers. The Indian skipper makes no error and India win the game by 47 huge runs!
