What A Match !!
Yes of course that was an interesting match.  Afghanistan tried well. But unfortunately they were close to the victory but they failed to chase the target. Afghanistan made 300 runs but the target was 302. And now the Pakistan won the series. There is the last match which will be played tomorrow. And I hope Pakistan will win again.  Smiley
Yesterday's match saw 600+ runs in two innings at the same venue where the first match between Afghanistan and Pakistan was played. To say that Afghanistan played well enough in yesterday's match and Afghanistan's opener Gurbaz scored 151 runs which went completely in vain in Afghanistan's defeat. Although Afghanistan's chances of winning the match were looking up late in yesterday's match but Naseem Shah's unbeaten ten runs ruined those chances. However, Pakistan's take on the series is truly commendable and the final match is just waiting for Pakistan to be officially whitewashed.

The final overs are often chaotic for Afghanistan. Naseem Shah played unbelievable, turning into Afghanistan's biggest nightmare. This is the second time he has led Pakistan to victory in a close match against Afghanistan. Congratulations to Pakistan Cricket for confirming the series win.
Pakistan team reached the peak of victory against Afghanistan but it is very sad. Because in this match Afghanistan performed very well and batsman Gurbaz he performed well but failed to take the team to victory. Because the bowling point of Afghanistan did not perform well, and if Abdur Rahman had done a little better bowling performance and the run rate would have come down, Afghanistan would have won. Because here only one to two ball margin is won. Abdur Rahman got one wicket with 83 runs in 10 overs which is a huge loss for the team as the run rate is 8.3 per over. But I think with this style of bowling, Afghanistan is bound to lose.

In Afghanistan vs Pakistan today 2nd ODI match, Afghanistan came out to bat first and set a target of 300 runs in 50 overs. After some time, Pakistan will come out to bat. If Pakistan wants to win this match, Pakistan team will have to perform well in batting. Pakistan team  Well done in the bowling line for which Afghanistan team could not give much target of runs. Shaheen Afridi of Pakistan team bowled 10 overs and took 2 wickets with 58 runs.
In this match Afghanistan batsmen batting amazingly set a high total of 301 runs in 50 Overs. From Afghanistan Rahmanullah Gurbaz brilliant 151 runs in 151 balls and Ibrahim Zadran scored 80 runs in 101 balls he is just 20 runs short of his well deserved century. Pakistan bowlers struggling to get wickets only Shaheen Shah Afradi picks up 2 Wickets by just giving 58 runs in 10 Overs. Now Pakistan currently scores 173 runs in loss of 2 wickets in 32 Overs. They Need 128 runs in 18 overs to win this match and Series and 8 wickets in hand. Imam ul Haq batting beautifully playing at 70 runs not out and  Muhammad Rizwan is playing at 2 not out. I think Pakistan will win this match if this Partnership is more than 50 runs.
In today's match, Afghanistan has managed to set up a good score. They are currently in a favorable position in the ongoing match but the match outcome is still uncertain because Pakistani batsmen can destructive at any moment. Moreover, the required run rate isn't excessively high either. At this time, Pakistan needs 64 runs off 38 balls, and according to the required run rate, they need about 10 runs per over. This doesn't seem too difficult since Pakistan still has 4 wickets in hand. Shadab Khan and Iftikhar Ahmed both trying to make good partnership, if Afghanistan can pick up them early then good things will be in store for them in this match.
Congratulations to Pakistan for winning 2nd ODI by 1 wicket What a nail biting match Pakistan hold their nerve in the final 50th over and won this match and series 2-0 lead in the ODI series against Afghanistan. The match of the match is Shabad Khan for his match winning inning 48 runs in 35 balls with 3 Fours and 1 Six. Pakistan team chased down the 302 target in 49.5 overs with loss of 9 wickets. Imam ul Haq had a brilliant batting performance of 91 runs in 105 balls Unfortunately he missed his well deserved century by just 9 runs short Babar Azam also scored fifty. The man of the moment is Naseem Shah 10 runs unbeaten in just 5 balls and scored winning runs to make a lead of 2-0 in the Series.

Pakistan team confirmed the series win by winning the first two matches. I saw the first match we were completely one sided. Afghanistan lost all their wickets for just 59 runs. Afghanistan conceded a humiliating defeat.
In the second match, Afghanistan's two openers batted brilliantly. Afghanistan's collection from the opening pair was 227 runs. Afghanistan set a target of 301 runs. Even then, the team's chances of winning were slim. The performance of Pakistan's top order was good enough. But the performance of Pakistan's middle order players was poor. So I thought maybe Pakistan is going to be defeated. But Shadab Khan's brilliant batting helped Pakistan to win the match. But the match was very competitive and exciting.
The second ODI match between Pakistan and Afghanistan ended with drama in the last over. Pakistan needed 11 runs to win in the last over where Pakistan had already lost 8 wickets. In the last over, Nasim Shah was at the strike end for 11 runs and Shadab Khan was at the non-strike end, Shadab Khan's plan was that whether Nasim Shah could put the ball on the bat or not, he must take the run for the purpose of telling the ball. Farooqi bowls the ball off the wicket and Mankad pleads for out. The umpire gives out to Shadab Khan when applied for out. Pakistan needed 11 runs off the next five balls and Afghanistan needed just one wicket. Naseem Shah normalized the statistics by hitting a boundary in the second ball of the 50th over. Later, these two batsmen confirmed the victory of Pakistan with 1 ball in hand in the responsible batting of Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah.

The game was really interesting as Afghanistan tried hard enough to win the match, but unfortunately Pakistan won the match. If Afghanistan played exceptionally well in the second match compared to their first match and improved the fielding but could not improve the bowling much. If he could have bowled a little better in the last match, then maybe there would have been a chance to win against Pakistan. But Pakistan could not score much runs in the first innings but in the middle innings Pakistan batsmen played superbly due to which they achieved a great score of 302 runs. But despite the good performance of Afghanistan players, they could not win the match, it is really unfortunate for them. But I think maybe Pakistan will win the third ODI and if Afghanistan performs well then maybe they will win.

I saw the match when Pakistan needs another 93 runs in 78 balls with 7 wickets left. I thought it to be a easy winning match for Pakistan, and to know the result later checked with the score. To my surprise the match hadn't finished and 3 runs required from 2 balls and I expected Afghanistan to win the match. Naseem Shah had batted well at that position scoring a boundary and won it for Pakistan. Anyhow a good performance from a team that ended its innings for just 59 runs and great performance from Rahmanullah Gurbaz of Afghanistan scoring 151 runs and Imam-ul-Haq of Pakistan scoring 91 runs.
Yes at the score of 208 runs Pakistan lost only 3 wickets in 37 Overs. It seems easily win because 7 wickets were in hand but Afghanistan bowlers great comeback took wickets and after that 8 wicket loss and 27 runs remaining in 12 balls Shadab Khan and Naseem Shah on Carees Shabab played good cricket hit four and six in 49th Over and 11 runs needed in 6 balls than Afghan bowler run out by cheating. Then Naseem Shah did it again by hitting 2 fours and won the match for Pakistan. I think Afghanistan must be sick of the sight of Naseem Shah with the batting performance. That twice he took Pakistan to victory in a tight match and Pakistan won by 1 wicket in the last Over.

In afghanistan vs Pakistan match has been fantastic match. Both team played in this second ODI. Pakistan team well played and Pakistan batsmen chased 300 runs to win. It is not too easy because Afghanistan bowling line is very strong. There has world famous bowling Mohammad Rashid. But i also think Afghanistan bating line is normal then Pakistani bating line.
Waoo it was so much drama and excitement especially in last over when things for Pakistan are looking almost finished but the horrible dream for Afghanistan name Naseem Shah alway teased them hardly just like previous, at one moment things were completely reminding me the last moment of Asia cup because situation were completely same when Naseem were on crease and Pakistan required 11 runs in last over against farooqi, after dismissal of shadab I taught game is over for Pak but surprisingly it's not.
No doubt Afghanistan batter were on fire today, they scored one of highest target with some spectacular partnerships but in last the Fazal Haq farooqi ruined entire things just like previous, hope he will learn from his mistakes or team should transfer his over to second last over of the match..

The match has now become competitive and Pakistan's chances of victory now seem slim. Pakistan's top order got off to a great start. The partnership of Imam Ul Haque and Babar Azam was very effective. But then Pakistan's middle-order players could not maintain consistency. Mohammad Rizwan scored only 2 runs. Usama mir failed to collect any runs. This made it difficult for Pakistan to win the match

Iftikhar and Shadab are batting now. They are both very good batsmen. But Pakistan need 46 runs from 24 balls. They have to score around 12 runs per over. The way the Afghanistan bowlers are bowling, it is very difficult to collect 46 runs in just 4 overs. Even then I think Pakistan still has a chance to win if Iftikhar and Sadab are at the crease.


The first ODI of the PAK vs AFG was like the practice match to the Pakistan.Because the Pakistan had crushed the team Afghanistan with the 19.2 overs.This was the biggest lesson to the team Afghanistan,Pakistan scored 207 in 47.1 overs.But the bowling of the Pakistan was the unexpected one by the Afghanistan.It may be the lowest score by Afghanistan against 59/10.Because Afghanistan had lose all wicket in 19.2 overs.Today match may be very close and huge come back by the team Afghanistan.This was unexpected by the Pakistan,because Pakistan taste the victory one ball before the last ball.

LOL... I watched this match until 26th over of the second innings and then Pakistan was at 146/1. Then I had to leave as I had an important office meeting. And when I finished my meeting and went back to my personal laptop, the match was already over. But I never expected a match this close. Pakistan just scraped through in the end by the smallest of the margins. And I believe that this is the second time that Naseem Shah is doing something like this against Afghanistan. If I am correct, he did something similar during the Asia Cup as well.
You are correct it's second time and first was in Asia Cup while Afghani's were rude but today again they were feeling good after Shadab Khan run out, but Naseem Shah have other plans for them good win for the Pakistan after doing good work in early overs and having collapse in last few overs just Pakistan can do things like this mean heart attack situations for their own fans.  Shocked Cry Shocked

Afgan batsman Rahmanullah Gurbaz palyed fantastic he takes 151 runs from 151 bolls and Ibrahim Zadran taken 80 runs from 101 bolls and Mohammad Nabi taken 29 runs from 29 bolls but no any others batsman could not play well on the otherhand 4 Pakistani batsman taken good runs. Overall both team played well. And many many thanks to Shadab Khan for man of the match.

I feel bad for Afghanistan, but the run out by Farooqi wasn't the real meaning of cricket game. These decisions always bring controversy in the cricket. Farooqi has done that to turn the game in their favour, and he was successful on it. But Naseem Shah has changed the momentum of the match again like he did it in the Asia cup of 2022.

Last time it was Farooqi vs Naseem in Asia Cup and its once again same scenario but now in Srilanka. I was surprised how Afghanistan batting was shattered in first ODI but they made a recovery today.
Farooqi got the wicket of Shadab legally and its Shadab who made the mistake of not looking at Farooqi. Last ODI will be played in Colombo and I am sure there will be more drama to come.

Afghanistan vs Pakistan
 In the team match, Pakistan won by 1 wicket. The run that Afghanistan put on the field to bat first was not the right run for them to win. However, Afghanistan could have put Pakistan team's batsmen under pressure. Pakistan team's batsmen are very strong.  Pakistan managed to win this match. In this match, Afghanistan could not give the target of good runs in batting. The bowling line of Afghanistan team was very weak due to which they lost the match.

Wow what a game we have between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Afghanistan lost the game after doing all the hard work in batting and bowling. Its Naseem Shah once again who did the job for Pakistan and once again reminded about Asia Cup game. A dramatic last over, Farooqi got Shadab run out in controversial manner but then last pair manage to score 11 runs that got Pak home.
It was a good game, Pakistan was in control of this chase during the early stages when they were 170 for the loss of one wicket and from that situation they lost a few quick wickets which will be worrying in the long term as the middle order is really struggling and at point they lost their 8th wicket with 30 odd runs to win.

Credits to Shadab Khan and Naseem Shah for taking Pakistan home in the second last ball of the match.

What A Match !! Pakistan managed to win till the end. But their victory was uncertain. After the poor performance of the middle order players I don't think Pakistan will be able to win this match. Pakistan won the first two matches of the series.

Pakistan needed 27 runs in the last two overs. Scoring 27 runs in two overs was much more difficult with no experienced batsmen at the crease. Shadab khan batted brilliantly today. He scored 48 runs off just 35 balls. And finally Naseem Shah's batting resulted in Pakistan winning. Naseem scored 10 runs off 5 balls. Pakistan could not have won if they could not collect these 10 runs in the last over. Also Naseem bowled very well today.
