In today's match, Zimbabwe gave a small target of 128 runs. But Afghanistan could not start the innings well. If Mohammad Nabi had failed to bat well, Afghanistan would have lost the match.
Today I couldn't watch this match due to personal engagement but I can guess from the last two overs that if Mohammad Nabi was not there or if he was not at the strike end then if Mujib was at the strike end Afghanistan might not have won because seven runs were needed in the last over. If Mujeeb had gone on the offensive, there might have been some ball misconnections that would have put Afghanistan under pressure and in danger of being defeated. But Mohammad Nabi managed to handle the pressure from the strike end.

The game is very tight between the two teams at the moment, as Afghanistan lost their top batsmen early on, due to which they came under pressure at the last minute. At this moment, Afghanistan needs to score 13 runs from 12 balls to win, although at this moment Zimbabwe will try to bowl quite strongly. If Afghanistan fails to meet this target in today's match, then the series will be lost, so to win at this moment, the batsmen must hit a boundary that will take them closer to victory. However, since the game is going on in excitement at the moment, if Afghanistan bats well, then they will win and win the series.
Afghanistan finally won today's match. And Afghanistan also won the series by a margin of 2-1. However, the series win against Zimbabwe was very difficult for Afghanistan.
Before the start of the series, we thought that Afghanistan would win easily. Since the Afghanistan team is very experienced in the T20 format. Moreover, the Afghanistan squad is also very strong. We did not think that Zimbabwe would be able to take any advantage in this series. However, Zimbabwe performed well in the first match. Afghanistan gave a target of 145 runs. Even then, Zimbabwe won the match.
In today's match, Zimbabwe gave a small target of 128 runs. But Afghanistan could not start the innings well. If Mohammad Nabi had failed to bat well, Afghanistan would have lost the match.
Another shit match going on between Zimbabwe and Afghanistan, and I am watching it live on Fancode. 
Afghan batsmen are once again struggling against some very ordinary bowling from Zimbabwe. If we thought that Pakistan was inconsistent, then I don't know a proper word to describe Afghanistan's performance. Part-time bowlers such as Sikandar Raza are picking wickets. And remember that this is T20 format, and Afghanistan was expected to do better in this format.
It happened. Afghanistan is definitely a much better team than Zimbabwe. However, Afghanistan were under a bit of pressure towards the end and when Rashid Khan got out with seven runs needed from six balls, Nabi made the match much easier with a first-ball boundary. But the reason for Zimbabwe's defeat in today's match is not being able to score too much under added nerves especially 127 runs is not enough for a hard hitter team like Afghanistan. However, Zimbabwe managed to keep Afghanistan under pressure but Zimbabwe lost this match for extra runs like 17 runs, that is, due to multiple mistakes, today's match went out of Zimbabwe's control.

The third match of the T20 series is today, Zimbabwe is batting in the first innings, we know that there is a tie between the two teams in this series. The team that wins this match today will be the champion of the series, since both teams are equal in terms of results, so both teams will play well to win the series today. Although Afghanistan has a high chance of winning this match, if the Zimbabwe team plays well, the game will be more exciting. At the moment, the Zimbabwe team has lost two wickets and the way they are batting, it will be possible for them to collect a huge score. At the moment, the Zimbabwe team has managed to collect 52 runs in 7 overs after losing two wickets, so the Afghanistan team will bowl well to put pressure on Zimbabwe at the moment.
We considered Afghanistan as the favorite team in this series. However, Afghanistan team unexpectedly lost in the first match of the series. However, Afghanistan equalized the series by winning the second match.
Zimbabwe could not give a big target in today's match. Zimbabwe could only score 127 runs. However, the pitch was not batting friendly. Even if Zimbabwe gave a small target, it will be very difficult for Afghanistan to win the match. Even then, I consider Afghanistan team as the favorite to win. Afghanistan top order could not play well. Afghanistan scored only 36 runs in 6 overs. And the team lost three wickets. If Afghanistan loses two more wickets before 10 overs, then maybe Afghanistan team will not be able to win this match.
But things are getting worse for Zimbabwe so far Afghanistan have collected 61 runs for 4 wickets but gave away 16 extra runs as wide +no ball+ legby. If these runs are not checked, Zimbabwe will have no chance.

The target of 127 runs originally set by Zimbabwe was not enough for Afghanistan but Afghanistan have already lost four top order batsmen so it is not clear which team is likely to win at this moment.
But things are getting worse for Zimbabwe so far Afghanistan have collected 61 runs for 4 wickets but gave away 16 extra runs as wide +no ball+ legby. If these runs are not checked, Zimbabwe will have no chance.

Afghanistan lost four wickets in their top order very quickly. But the fifth wicket partnership played brilliantly for the Afghan team. Azmatullah Omarzai and Gulbadin Naib batted very responsibly. Omarzai is unbeaten on 25 runs and Gulbadin Naib is out for 22 runs. Afghanistan lost their fifth wicket for 92 runs.
The match is now completely under Afghanistan's control, although Afghanistan has lost 5 wickets. Afghanistan needs to score 33 runs in 36 balls to win. Omarzai, Mohammad Nabi and Rashid Khan are all capable of batting well in the T20 format. So scoring 33 runs is still not a difficult task for Afghanistan.

After winning toss Afghanistan put Zimbabwe into bat which is good decision by them as they already took 3 quick wickets which bring home team under pressure as they are looking for decent total to defend after having lost in second game and level in series.Afghanistan doing good job after losing first game of the series now they are also having good rhythm in bowling which is their main weapon today we have one change with Fareed Ahmad out, and we have Fazalhaq Farooqi in now after 9 overs we have 62 for 3 Sikandar Raza is on crease with Wessly Madhevere they needed to have nearly 160+ if they want to have good fight for win in this last game of series.

Ryan Rickelton is already gone and South Africa seems to be struggling. The required run rate has gone up to 11 runs per over, and Matthew Breetzke and Reeza Hendricks are at the crease. Shaheen Shah Afridi and Jahandad Khan have so far done a good job for Pakistan. Anyway, chasing 200 plus totals is very difficult at the Centurion SuperSport Park. But then, South Africa have explosive batsmen such as Rassie van der Dussen and Heinrich Klaasen to come next. These two can take the match away from Pakistan in a matter of few minutes.
Well it was look like an easy victory for Pakistan become they goes above 200 and also they have quality bowling to defend it as usually so everyone expect they will done it easily but unfortunately due to neither support from track and quality innings from Hendricks and vender dussen things goes out of Pakistan grip and from a winning and dominance position they goes downward and lose the very vital game of the series. Anyway after first two early wickets I taught now they will easily defend it because south African will be under huge pressure but the way Hendricks not only absorb the pressure through power hitting but make a comeback of his team on track to easy victory. To be honest no one except from Pakistan to have defeat in this match but they does and lose the series Pakistan bowling could not get these two experienced South African batsmen out in the second T20, today Pakistan bowlers need to get those two batsmen out first or they can defeat Pakistan today with their excellent innings. If Pakistan had won the second T20, they would have had a chance to win the series in today's match, but they couldn't do that. So if Pakistan can win today's match, maybe their honor will be saved a little.

Another time after performing unbelievably in batting the Pakistan team lost the game so badly. They scored more than 200 runs. Even they had the loss of their many players at the start of the game but still they gave an high target. The game was close and I hope now Pakistan wins the last remaining match and also they deserve to win as they are performing in the matches. In the ODI series, I hope that they will play awesome and provide better results.
Now coming to South Africa they did not give respect to this target and chased it up in the target in 19th over. Reeza Hendricks made 116 and Rassie van der Dussen made 66 runs. South Africa lost only 3 wickets in this chase which shows that they were completely in control right from the start.

It is true that Pakistan scored 206 runs which was more than the first T20 match but 206 runs on a batting assisted pitch was not a difficult target for South Africa as it was not difficult to target this run at their own venue.
Moreover, T20 cricket is a cricket where if any player becomes aggressive, the team does not have to go through a tough time to win, as shown by Reeza Hendricks' century against Pakistan and partnership with Van Der Dussen. But Pakistan today's match has a lot of chances, but unfortunately this match was lost, the series win was lost, that is, if Pakistan could have won today's match, then the chances would have remained to take a chance in the next match.
Pakistan scored 206 runs which was better than their score in first T20 match. But South Africa found it easy to reach this target especially since pitch was good for batting. In T20 cricket one player can play very well and change game like Reeza Hendricks did when he scored 100 runs and worked well with Van Der Dussen. Even though Pakistan had chances to win match they did not succeed and lost game which also meant they lost their chance to catch up in series. And I think this was the matter of luck otherwise the 206 runs score is a good score in T20 format.Moreover, T20 cricket is a cricket where if any player becomes aggressive, the team does not have to go through a tough time to win, as shown by Reeza Hendricks' century against Pakistan and partnership with Van Der Dussen.

Pakistan disappointed bowling performance in this match Jahandad Khan only picked 2 wickets but after that South Africa played a outclassed batting scored and third wicket lost at 185 runs. Abbas Afridi picked the important wicket of Reeza Hendricks at 117 runs. from Pakistan, Saim Ayub played a classic inning of 98 runs unbeaten from 57 balls. Unfortunately, Saim Ayub missed a well-deserved century by 2 runs short but assisted Pakistan to cross 200 plus runs. South Africa chase the huge target easily with only loss of 3 wickets. The man of match award goes to Reeza Hendricks for his outstanding batting performance scored a well deserved century 117 runs from just 63 balls and helped South Africa to easily won this match and leading the series with 2-0.
Another time what a hard luck for Saim Ayub . He always performed amazingly in every single game including leagues and could not complete his century but this time he reached too close to make his first international century in T20 but missed by 2 runs only. He remained not out at 98 but still Pakistan could not win this match.
However, he played incredible performance allowing us to see back to back sixes and shots from different angles. I think now Saim Ayub is one of the best options for Pakistan in T20 and at the same time he can be good in one day but in test matches, he should play as less matches as he can because he is a power hitter and does not suit the format of the test.

This is the third series in which the Pakistan team is leading by Muhammad Rizwan and in the first two series, he made very good record. Yes lost the games againist Zimbabwe but still also won back to back one day matches against Australia in Australia that was an unexcepted moment for the Pakistan team.
However, I think this time Pakistan is not able to beat South Africa in South Africa. They played well, scoring 206 runs but still unable to defend them. ODI series are also coming and Pakistan is fully prepared for one day matches as they are focusing on those matches according to the coaches.
That is why today I was expecting good from the Zimbabwe team and they disappointed us. They were all out at 103 runs and lost the match by good 50 runs. The next game is tomorrow in which I think Afghanistan will make win for themselves. Let's see what will happen there.
Afghanistan won the match. We expected this win as Afghanistan is overall a better team than Zimbabwe.
Zimbabwe would have won it but in the end stages, they were losing wickets quickly due to which they were unable to chase the 153 runs and they lost the match. They (Zimbabwe) should not lose heart. They put in a good effort and still, there is one more game to win and take the series.
In addition to this, they are ODI series and two test matches so there will be many chances for Zimbabwe to beat Afghanistan and in the further games, Afghanistan cannot take Zimbabwe lightly even if they want to because they are suffering the loss of the first single match. Let's see will Zimbabwe beat them again in today's match?
