The Afghans have given a target of 188 runs after batting first. Sediqullah Atal and Ibrahim Zadran both scored half centuries that helped Afghans giving a good target. It will be interesting to see how UAE will chase this target. UAE after two overs have scored 17 runs and one of their batsmen is back in the pavilion. In there last game against Pakistan, UAE scored 176 runs batting second and Afghans must keep this thing in mind that UAE team has the capability to chase this target.

Afghans played a great innings I taught UAE will choose to bat after toss as they have decent statics while defending target, but I think due to Sharjah condition where mostly team struggle early on and also against Pakistan they already does better so that's why they choose to defend, but unfortunately things goes beyond thier expectations. Afghans spinners significantly set trap for them and even having situation in UAE favor still they mange to restrict them below, Waseem does brilliantly and it was expected from Asif Khan to repeat his innings but he unable and thus Afghanistan register his very first win of tri series

Throughout the match, Afghanistan were looking keen to win the match and they batted with responsibility this time. Once they had 188 runs on board, it was an easy task for their bowlers to defend.

United Arab Emirates tried their best to come close to this target. At one stage when Muhammad Waseem and Rahul Chopra were batting, it seems that they maybe chase this target but once Muhammad Waseem out, there was wickets falling quickly and the UAE team felt apart.

The performance of United Arab Emirates against such a strong bowling line-up like Afghanistan has really caught the attention of cricket fans. I did not watch the entire match between Afghanistan vs United but I saw some parts of the second innings when United Arab Emirates were batting and their batting was really something to notice. United Arab Emirates did not win but they tried their best to win against Afghanistan. I have seen big teams get all out in a short span of time against Afghanistan's bowling line-up and United Arab Emirates scored 150 plus runs which is a great achievement. They may not get the spotlight like that in this series but their performance will definitely be commendable.
