Poor death bowling from Pakistan sees Afghanistan recover, post 148-run target

 

DUBAI, OCT 29: Afghanistan have posted a 148-run target for Pakistan in their T20 World Cup 2021 fixture at Dubai International Cricket Stadium.

Afghanistan were well and truly the second-best team for large swathes of the innings as a combination of fierce pace and shrewd spin kept their runs in check, and had them on the ropes at 76-6 in the 13th over. 

Then, captain Mohammad Nabi and Gulbadin Naib formed an unbeaten 71-run partnership, which included monstrous last three overs, in which they bled Pakistan for 43 runs.
