Rashid Khan to Philippe Boissevain
OUT! BOWLED! Through the gate! Googly, lands on off and comes back in. Philippe Boissevain looks to block but it sneaks through the gate and hits the stumps.

Rashid Khan to Vivian Kingma
Kingma is safe! Tossed up, lands outside off and comes back in. Kingma looks to block but it sneaks through the gate. It goes very close to the off pole and since there are no bails, it's tough to give it bowled. Rashid though is appealing. The umpires have a word. The TV umpire is called in and after looking at it from various angles, there is no concrete evidence to suggest that it clipped the off stump.

 Full ball, around off. Kingma looks to block it from the crease but misses. There is a noise as the ball goes past the stumps. The Afghan players enquire if it clipped the stumps this time but the umpire is not interested.

Yamin Ahmadzai to Vivian Kingma
OUT! RUN OUT! Easy decision for the TV umpire this time! Fullish and around off, Vivian Kingma forces it out on the off side. He crosses for a risky single as the bowler misses his shy at the non-striker's end. Vivian Kingma wants the second but is sent back. Meanwhile, Rashid Khan fires a direct hit at the bowler's end from long on as Vivian Kingma tries to drag his bat inside the safety crease. They appeal and the TV umpire is called. Kingma though is seen to be walking off. The replays find him short.

Yamin Ahmadzai to Fred Klaassen
OUT! RUN OUT! There it is! The final wicket to end what has been a brilliant game for Afghanistan. Back of a length, around off. Fred Klaassen looks to heave it away but gets the inside edge on the pads. It rolls to the off side and they look for a single. Najibullah Zadran though runs in from point and scores a direct hit at the bowler's end. Fred Klaassen is short and that is the last wicket. Afghanistan win by 36 runs!
