Twitter is going berserk as Afghanistan thump Pakistan to clinch historical T20I sequence win

Read Time:4 Minute, 41 Second

Afghanistan emerged victorious in the second one T20 global in opposition to Pakistan, taking an unassailable 2-0 lead within the three-game sequence at Sharjah.

Within the ultimate overs, Afghanistan confronted some nerve-wracking moments as they wanted 30 runs from the remaining 3 overs and 22 runs from the remaining two. On the other hand, Najibullah Zadran and Mohammad Nabi performed a vital function in hitting a six every off tempo bowler Naseem Shah within the penultimate over to cut back the objective to 5 runs. In the end, Zadran scored the successful boundary off Zaman Khan’s remaining over, with Afghanistan chasing down the 131-run goal with one ball to spare.

Pakistan had set a goal of 130-6 in 20 overs, constructed round a sluggish 57-ball 64 now not out by way of all-rounder Imad Wasim – his maiden T20I half-century. Imad led Pakistan’s restoration and added 67 runs for the 6th wicket with skipper Shadab Khan, who scored 32 off 25 balls. On the other hand, Pakistan had a disastrous get started with left-arm pacer Fazalhaq Farooqi claiming Saim Ayub and Abdullah Shafique, each for nought, within the first over of the innings. Farooqi completed with 2-19 in his 4 overs. Shafique, who made his debut in November 2020, has been pushed aside for nought on 4 successive events in 5 T20Is.

Afghanistan’s victory was once their first bilateral T20I sequence in opposition to any of the highest six groups, which come with India, England, Pakistan, South Africa, New Zealand and Australia. Prior to now, they’d received a T20I sequence in opposition to the West Indies, Bangladesh and 5 in 5 in opposition to Zimbabwe.

Right here’s how Twitter reacted:
