Nangarhar Leopards vs Paktia Panthers, 15th Match, Afghanistan Premier League 2018 - HighlightsNL vs PP, 15th Match, Afghanistan Premier League 2018 - Highlights

Udana to Zahir Khan, out Caught by Afridi!! Nothing is going past Afridi today. He's caught everything that has come his way. Slower length ball outside off, Zahir stays leg-side and looks to free his arms to send it over cover, Afridi standing right on the edge of the 30-yard circle times his jump and holds on. Udana ends with impressive figures, 4-0-14-2. Zahir Khan c Afridi b Udana 0(1)

Udana to Lamichhane, out Mujeeb Run Out!! Mujeeb had to go for that and Shahzad is too quick for him. Full and outside off, Lamichhane swings and misses, Mujeeb has the more power of the two and he wanted to get on strike, charges for the run and is caught short by Shahzad's direct hit. Mujeeb run out (Mohammad Shahzad) 7(4) [4s-1]

Udana to Naveen-ul-Haq, out Caught by Mohammad Shahzad!! Catching practice. It was a matter of time before Udana had his name in the wicket list. Nothing but a length ball angled outside off, Naveen-ul-Haq crouches low and guides it to the right of Shahzad. It was almost like how the coaches give catching practice to the keeper and slip cordon before the game. Naveen-ul-Haq c Mohammad Shahzad b Udana 13(16) [4s-1]

Yousuf Zazai to Naveen-ul-Haq, no run, run-out missed. Yorker following a backing away Naveen-ul-Haq, who does not put bat to ball and starts running, sent back and he puts in the dive. Shahzad misses to hit the target with his under-arm lob

Yousuf Zazai to Mujeeb, 1 run, dropped! It would have been a stunner had Delport latched on. On a length and outside off, Mujeeb slices it to the left of backward point, Delport flies across and gets one hand to it. Doesn't stick

Yousuf Zazai to Mujeeb, FOUR, he's not going to hang around. A poor delivery from Zazai. Slower short of length delivery and it sat up for Mujeeb, who flat-bats the pull in front of square leg

Yousuf Zazai to Rahmat, out Caught by Afridi!! Good catch. It was a full toss outside off, Rahmat was backing away and had to reach out for it, toe-ends the loft towards extra cover, where Afridi had to run back and take it over his right shoulder. The set batsman departs. Rahmat c Afridi b Yousuf Zazai 32(38) [4s-2]

Udana to Naveen-ul-Haq, FOUR, first boundary off Udana. He offered space for the batsman outside off and is punished, Naveen-ul-Haq rushed down the wicket and threw his bat at that, sliced over short third man

Ziaw Rahman to Cutting, out Caught by Afridi!! That ball touched the clouds before coming back down, but Afridi at no point in time looked flustered. Cutting goes for the loft down the ground and toe-ends it straight up, Afridi did not have to move much as he settled under it at cover. Third wicket for Ziaw Rahman and this is a big one. Cutting c Afridi b Ziaw Rahman 21(12) [6s-2]

Sharafuddin Ashraf to Cutting, SIX, once more Cutting uses the long handle and gets maximum result. Not a bad delivery by any means, Cutting uses his height to tower it over the long-on fence

Afridi to Rahmat, FOUR, ruins his figures with this big over, 14 off the over. Afridi finishes with 4-0-27-2. Rahmat plays the late cut almost off Shahzad's gloves and hence gets it fine, beating short third man easily

Afridi to Cutting, SIX, massive! Picked the length and used the long levers to good effect, went down on his knee and slog swept it out of the ground near the deep mid-wicket region. Afridi looks frustrated

Afridi to Shahidi, out Stumped!! A disappointed Shahidi walks back. It was a tight call and could have gone either way, the third umpire has favoured Paktia. The wrong 'un and Shahidi played for the leg-break, lunged forward to have a push and is beaten on the outside edge, overbalances and lifts his back leg, Shahzad removes the bails off during that time. Shahidi plonked his foot back in at almost the same time Shahzad removed the bails. Shahidi st Mohammad Shahzad b Afridi 4(8)

Afridi to Shafiqullah, out Shafiqullah Run Out!! Shafiq is in trouble here. He came a long way down looking for the single, and was unhappy when he got no response from Rahmat. Afridi runs back, gets to the ball and fires it at the striker's end where even a dive doesn't save Shafiq. Shafiqullah run out (Afridi/Mohammad Shahzad) 1(3)

Afridi to Devcich, out Bowled!! Afridi wasn't happy with that earlier no-ball call and he lets his anger out after bowling Devcich. Slightly short, so Devcich backs away to cut, but the ball spins in and cramps him up to knock off stump. Devcich b Afridi 14(15) [4s-2]

Afridi to Rahmat, 1 run, dropped. Short ball, it was pulled flat and hard towards deep midwicket. Not an easy catch, it was dying on the fielder, but he dived forward and got both hands to it, so should have been taken

Afridi to Devcich, 1 run, leading edge falls just short of cover. Devcich didn't pick the googly at all and was working across the line of it

Ziaw Rahman to Rahmat, 1 run, dipping full toss that is nudged to midwicket. They run through for the single which had great risk involved. But there's no direct hit

Ziaw Rahman to Rahmat, FOUR, thick outside edge past the keeper for four. Went for the drive away from the body, gets lucky

Ziaw Rahman to Charles, out Lbw!! That's as out as out can be. A slower off-cutter, grips the pitch and traps Charles right in front of off and middle as he prods forward. Charles lbw b Ziaw Rahman 22(16) [4s-3 6s-1]

Ziaw Rahman to Charles, SIX, that is both - high and long. The ideal combination. Length ball, Charles gets right underneath and launches it over the midwicket boundary

Ziaw Rahman to Charles, FOUR, short of length on leg, pulls it away fine. Bad bowling

Yousuf Zazai to Charles, FOUR, full toss on leg stump, no problems for Charles as he flicks it over square leg

Udana to Charles, 2 runs, dipping full toss from the back of the hand, deceives Charles who just chips it over square leg after being early in the shot. May have been a chance with a more agile fielder, but Shinwari doesn't even get hands while running back. Udana not happy at all, makes his displeasure known

Ziaw Rahman to Charles, FOUR, full outside off, driven away through extra cover where Afridi doesn't even get out of first gear while chasing the ball

Ziaw Rahman to Najeeb Tarakai, out Lbw!! Tarakai wanted to loft this through the line, but Rahman gets it to nip back in off the seam and trap him in front of middle. It hits both the pads - first front and then back - and those were the two noises. Umpire raises his finger. Najeeb Tarakai lbw b Ziaw Rahman 1(7)

Udana to Najeeb Tarakai, leg byes, FOUR, huge shout for leg-before. There was no inswing from Udana from over the wicket, which works against the LBW as there is every chance of the ball pitching outside leg. But it was reasonably full. Still, the umpire isn't convinced, even as Tarakai plays right across the line. It strikes the pad and deflects past third man

Yousuf Zazai to Devcich, FOUR, now he connects properly and lofts this full ball over mid-on. Kept his shape, just an extension of the on-drive

Yousuf Zazai to Devcich, FOUR, short of length at the body, Devcich swivels into position and helps the pull away over short fine leg
