Afghanistan bowlers have done quite a good job but there batsmen failed to perform there duty. This is first time Pakistan have won so easily against Afghanistan. Still Pakistan need to be careful in next two matches as Afghanistan is an unpredictable team and they have the tendency to fight back in upcoming matches. Pakistani batting lineup also need to play with caution, if they continue to give such performance in next matches then result might not be in there favour.

Afghan batting has been in very poor shape for quite some time. Their bowlers are very popular across the various franchise T20 leagues. But for some unknown reason, they don't even have a single quality batsman. Hashmatullah Shahidi and Rahmanullah Gurbaz have featured in a few franchise leagues, but these players are inconsistent. Ideally, given that Afghanistan is being gifted with such talented bowlers (Rashid, Noor, Mujib.etc), they should be able to perform well in ODI cricket. But everytime, their poor batting is costing them matches.

10 batsmen managed to score just 59 runs in an innings in ODI cricket which is a shameful collection for Afghanistan cricket. Afghanistan managed to restrict Pakistan to a limited number of runs in the first innings and it would not have been a surprise if Afghanistan had shown responsibility in the first ODI match against Pakistan. Since there was not much pressure for Afghanistan to score runs, if the Pakistani fast bowlers could play then maybe Afghanistan would not have suffered a humiliating defeat against Pakistan. Asia Cup just a few days away, such a humiliating defeat by Afghanistan is undoubtedly a major concern for the management.

Pakistan vs Afghanistan
the best series of Cricket. 2nd ODI is playing on 24 August 2023. The country that hosts this series is Sri Lanka. The first ODI was played yesterday, and what we see Pakistan won the toss and decided to bat first. The score of Pakistan is 201. This is too much low a score according to ODI. But the Bowlers of Pakistan are too much amazing. Haris Rauf is the man of the match, with 5 wickets, Shaheen had 2 wickets, and
Naseem Shah and Shadab Khan both had 1 wicket. So, according to first Pakistan need to improve its batting and Afghanistan needs to improve both things batting and bowling to win this series. According to this match, Pakistan has 85% to win this series.

Congratulations to Pakistan for winning by 142 runs in 1st ODI against Afghanistan. Pakistan fast bowlers doing their job well and bolled the Afghanistani batter in 59 runs such an amazing display of fast bowling especially Haris Rouf picked 5 wickets for the first time in Odi and his spell is the best for his career picks 5 Wickets by just giving 18 runs in 6.2 Overs. Pakistan bowlers show their class just before Asia Cup and ICC world cup 2023. The player of the match is Raris Rouf for his extraordinary bowling spell. Shaheen And Naseem Shah also bowled well Shaheen picks 2 wickets and Naseem picks 1 wickets and all out of Afghanistan in 59 runs.

Haris Rouf He gave the biggest proof of his career in yesterday's ODI match against Afghanistan. Because he picked up five wickets for just 18 runs which is the biggest win in this match. Pakistan got the win by increasing on fast bowling but if I want to see then definitely Pakistan was not in a good position to bat first. Pakistan fell by two wickets in two overs at the start of the game but here Afghanistan did not perform well in bowling later on. Imam UL Haq gave the best batting performance due to which Pakistan team succeeded in scoring 201 runs. But the ground where yesterday's match was played was famous for its bowling pieces. This is why both Pakistan and Afghanistan faced a lot of pressure in the beginning.

Sirlinka pitches are bowling friendly especially spin pitches that why Pakistani batters face problems against spin bowling. Afghanistan spins bowling attack is the best in the world quality spins bowling like Rashid Khan, Mujeeb ur Rehman and Muhammad Nabi all spin bowlers pick 7 wickets but the problem is that Afghanistan batters don't perform well against Pakistani fast bowlers. Only Afghan batter Rahmanullah Gurbaz scored highest 18 runs in 47 balls Rest of other batters didn't cross double figures. But Pakistan batters including Imam ul Haq scored 61 runs and Iftikhar Ahmad 30 scored well played and played an important role in Pakistan victory.

This is the first time I saw Afghanistan losing to Pakistan so easily. Till now whenever there is a match between Afghanistan and Pakistan, Afghanistan gave their best. Imam rescued Pakistan today by scoring 61 runs. 202 is not a big target to chase, but Pakistani pacers were too good today that they just outclassed Afghanistan batting lineup today.

10 batsmen managed to score just 59 runs in an innings in ODI cricket which is a shameful collection for Afghanistan cricket. Afghanistan managed to restrict Pakistan to a limited number of runs in the first innings and it would not have been a surprise if Afghanistan had shown responsibility in the first ODI match against Pakistan. Since there was not much pressure for Afghanistan to score runs, if the Pakistani fast bowlers could play then maybe Afghanistan would not have suffered a humiliating defeat against Pakistan. Asia Cup just a few days away, such a humiliating defeat by Afghanistan is undoubtedly a major concern for the management.

I am satisfied with the performance of the Afghanistan bowlers. Pakistan batsmen are in very good form now. They have shown great performance against New Zealand in the last series as well. And the players of Afghanistan were able to stop this team within 201 runs only. They have bowled very well.

I don't think the performance of Afghanistan batsmen will be that bad. The target was not very big. They were not under too much pressure. Afghanistan's batsmen should have tried to stay at the crease. They batted like fools. Haris Rouf took 5 wickets and Shaheen Shah Afridi took 2 wickets. Afghanistan's batsmen felt helpless in front of Pakistan's pace attack.

In the first ODI match between Pakistan and Afghanistan, the bowlers of both the teams have performed brilliantly. Pakistan's batsmen are very strong in ODI cricket at the moment, against such a strong batting line-up, Afghanistan managed to bowl Pakistan out for just 201 runs, on the other hand, Pakistan bowlers managed to bowl out Afghanistan's batsmen for just 59 runs, that is, the batsmen of both teams scored only 260 runs against the bowlers of both teams. Two innings were able to match. Pakistani bowlers proved that Pakistan is a favorite for Asia Cup with such aggressive bowling against Afghanistan. After losing badly in the first ODI, Afghanistan will surely try to bounce back against Pakistan in the second ODI. Afghanistan must focus more on their batting if they want to turn around against Pakistan.

It is actually hard to criticize Afghanistan, for anything to be honest. Especially with what they have been through in recent times. The situation is still not very incredible is the least to say for Afghanistan. But if we are going to talk about the political situation, we can also say that situation in Afghanistan is not too much worse compared to Pakistan.

And we also know that there are a lot of things going on with the decision of different tournaments being played in Pakistan. So the Pakistan Cricket Board is also worried about that. So I cannot say that the performance from Afghanistan happened because of having a stable political situation in the country. I have to say that Pakistan was just better in this match.

No one could have imagined that Afghanistan would perform so badly against Pakistan where Pakistan were bowled out for 201 runs while Afghanistan were bowled out for just 59 runs. Apart from Afghanistan's Gurbaz 18 and Azmatullah 16 runs, no other player crossed the double-digit mark. Afghanistan's five batsmen scored 0 runs and four batsmen scored 2,4,4,7 runs respectively.

Today is the first match of Afghanistan vs Pakistan OD series. Pakistan won the toss and the batting decided. Pakistan were all out for 201 runs in 47.1 overs. Pakistan batted very badly today, Imam-ul-Haq scored 61 runs as the only player to score half-century in the match. A very low target of 202 runs in ODI format. Afghanistan were all out for 59 runs in 19.2 overs. A humiliating loss for Afghanistan. Haris Rauf bowled brilliantly taking 5 wickets with 18 runs in 6.2 overs, Shaheen Afridi took 2 wickets. Pakistan won by 142 runs, congratulations to Pakistan team.

Pakistan absolutely decimated Afghanistan in a strong manner. I expected Pakistan to win even though they posted a small total, but I never expected Rauf to go on a rampage along with the other bowlers.

This series will boost their team in several ways which is clearly necessary for the upcoming Asia and World Cups.

Yesterday's ODI match was either a full bowling pitch or the weather conditions were such that the bowlers got massive help on yesterday's wicket. Afghanistan's spinner bowlers got a lot of help in Pakistan's innings, just like Pakistan's fast bowlers got a lot of help in Afghanistan's innings. However, Afghanistan's spinners picked up 7 wickets and Pakistan's fast bowlers picked up 8 wickets in yesterday's match.

This was a new squad which has been selected for Asia Cup too. Exactly the Pakistan team played brilliantly. Particularly I will appreciate Haris Rauf who shows his talent and got 5 wickets in 6.2 over for 18 runs. In my point of the target was not good. They made only 201 runs but they won with a great margin because they got all wickets of Afghanistan on 60 runs. Excellent performance Pakistan.

Pakistan scored good enough runs but the competition was with Afghanistan. But Afghanistan fans could never have imagined that Afghanistan would lose by such a margin. However, the Afghanistan batsmen could not stand the ground as five batting took zero runs. The rest of the batsmen are out with just a few runs. The best role here is the Pakistani bowling because I would say Haris Rouf and Shaheen Afridi gave the best bowling performance. I am very disappointed that Afghanistan lost by such a wide margin.

Even the supporters away from home could've never expected such a performance from Afghanistan. As stated five players have went to the pavilion without scoring runs as the tail end player Farooqi stood not out. At the beginning consecutive wickets fall happened as the first three wickets didn't score runs, Zadran-0(6) Shah-0(1) Shahidi-0(3). When the top order couldn't make runs then what will the down order does. Anyhow this isn't expected and a big bowling performance from Pakistan team which could give them more confidence for the upcoming Asia Cup.

But Imamul Haque's batting performance changed all my thoughts. More than batting, Pakistan team has performed well on the bowling site. In the attack of the strong bowlers of the Pakistan team. Afghanistan team lost all wickets after collecting 59 runs in 19.2 overs, the players of Afghanistan team were forced to leave the field. Pakistan cricket team won the first match of the ODI series against Afghanistan cricket team by a huge margin.

Pakistan struggled to score good runs, it was Imam-ul-Haq, Iftikhar Ahmed and Shadab Khan that helped Pakistan team make a decent target. Further it was Harish Rauf who stole the show with his five wicket haul.Shaheen Afridi was good enough to take two wickets. Looking the score Afghanistan could've thought this to be a winning match for them, and they never thought of such a worst performance will happen against the best bowlers.

Pakistan lost two important batsmen in the first two overs. Even though they played badly in the beginning, they managed to score 200 runs in the end. And the pitch was totally bowling friendly pitch. Even then I thought it would be a win at a target of just 200 runs / But I was very surprised by the performance of the Pakistani bowlers. Haris Rouf took 5 wickets for just 18 runs. Afghanistan's squad is not weak. Several batsmen in the squad perform in various franchise leagues throughout the year. They are experienced enough. Then they conceded a humiliating defeat losing all their wickets for just 59 runs. Pakistan seems to have a competent squad for the upcoming Asia Cup and World Cup.

Even though the team's top order failed, Imam Ul Haque batted responsibly. He managed to play an innings of 61 runs. Shadab Khan, Iftekhar and Naseem's innings were also very important. Shadab Khan scored 39 runs and Iftekhar scored 30 runs. However, it cannot be said that Pakistan's performance was poor on such a bowling friendly pitch. But their top order players should have batted more carefully.

I was very disappointed with the performance of the Afghanistan batsmen. Looking at the pitch condition it is well assumed that the pitch is bowling friendly. Still, their players batted like fools. Opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz scored the highest runs in the Afghanistan squad. He collected 18 runs off 47 balls. The overall condition of the Afghanistan squad now looks weak.

Pakistan looks pathetic. They are 170/8 after 41 overs. The decision to bat first is turning out to be such a strategic blunder. Shadab Khan is at the crease along with tail-ender Naseem Shah. Afghan spinners are just breaking the backbone of Pakistan batting. Mujeeb Ur Rahman has completed his spell and he finished with figures of 10-1-33-3, while Mohammad Nabi and Rashid Khan have taken 2 wickets apiece. It looks unlikely that Pakistan will be able to bat the full 50 overs and they may end up with a total of less than 200.

Pakistan did definitely look pathetic. But the thing is Afghanistan looked a lot more pathetic compared to Pakistan. Pakistan was definitely struggling to score runs freely. And to be honest, Pakistan only had 3/4 individual schools to talk about. Imam ul Haq, probably one of the most consistent players for Pakistan again helped their team to reach a good total. There were two good individual scores towards the end of the innings from Pakistan. With that Pakistan somehow got to 201.

But the way Afghanistan performed was absolutely pathetic. Five individual scores of zero and literally nobody could even score 20. Haris Rauf ran through the lineup of Afghanistan batting. Now Pakistan is leading by 1-0 in this series.

Pakistan team came to bat first and got all out by scoring 201 runs in 47.1 overs. If Pakistan team wants to win this run they have to perform well in the bowling line. .But Afghanistan are under a lot of pressure after losing 4 wickets. It is still not clear which team will win today's match. Ikram Alikhil is out for 4 runs in 9 balls. Hashmatullah Shahidi is out for 0 runs in 3 balls. Rahmat Shah is out 0 runs in 1 ball. And Ibrahim Zadran got out with 0 runs in 6 balls. I did not think that the batsmen of Afghanistan team will be out by batting so badly in this match.

The match between Pakistan and Afghanistan could have been different. Pakistan scored 201 runs all out in the first innings. A first look at the scorecard of this match might mistake this match as a T20 match. A target of 202 runs for Afghanistan which looked like a very easy target before Afghanistan came into bat but when Afghanistan came in to bat, the Pakistani bowlers played childish with the Afghanistan batsmen. Pakistan bowled out Afghanistan for just 59 runs. Asia Cup tournament ahead so we expected better from both teams.

Haris Rauf bowled brilliantly for Pakistan. Haris Rauf bowled just 6.2 overs and picked up five wickets for 18 runs, possibly his career-highest bowling figures. Haris Rauf who took 5 wickets with 18 runs might be adjudged the man of the match.

Afghanistan's batting performance today was abysmal due to which they lost quick wickets and the match was a huge margin. We have seen that when Pakistan batted first, they batted a bit poorly in the beginning but later on they improved their batting performance and scored good runs. While Pakistan scored 201 runs, Afghanistan could not even get half a run out of batting instead they lost all their wickets without playing 20 overs and lost by a huge margin of 142 runs. But today Pakistan bowled brilliantly due to which Afghanistan lost miserably which was really sad for Afghanistan. However, they must improve their batting and bowling in the next matches, otherwise they will perform worse in the upcoming Asia Cup tournament. Pakistan batsman Haris Rauf's brilliant bowling in today's match may have helped Pakistan get such a big win against Afghanistan which was really commendable.

What a fucking match between Afghanistan & Pakistan was completed today. Pakistan set a target of just 201 runs to Afghanistan in the ODI match which is also possible in the T20I match. on the other hand, Afghanistan lost their wicket for just 59 runs lol. It is a 50 over game, but it is possible to complete the target of 201 runs even if you play in this game. How did Pakistan lose all the wickets for only 59 runs Huh

It was a very boring game
