...Presentation...

Zimbabwe had to take their chances with overcast conditions. Despite a low total on the board, Blessing Muzarabani and Richard Ngarava bowled well with the new ball and troubled the Afghan batters. However, they were well short of runs and even one boundary in an over was pulling the game away from them. Zimbabwe kept taking wickets regularly and hung in there but not for long. Another 15-20 runs could have helped Zimbabwe! Sikandar Raza once again will stress on his batting unit who have failed once again to make an impact.

It was not an easy win for Afghanistan as they were 44/4 at one stage and in all sorts of trouble while chasing an under par score. However, Azmatullah Omarzai and Gulbadin Naib joined hands and put in a solid partnership. They had to be calculative as boundaries were hard to get by, the duo worked in singles and doubles to get them back on track. Both fell in the process but Mohammad Nabi showed his experience and helped his team seal the series.

A superb effort from Zimbabwe to stretch this game right till the last over. Despite such a low score on the board, Raza will be proud of his boys for the way they have played.
