The sixth match of the United Arab Emirates T20I Tri s eries is being played today. Afghanistan is playing against UAE. Afghanistan won the toss and decided to bat. However, Afghanistan started quite slowly. Afghanistan scored 19 runs in 4 overs.
In the previous match against UAE , afghanistan was able to give a big target of 189 runs. Afghanistan scored 188 runs losing only 4 wickets. In today's match too, I predict that Afghanistan will score 180 +. It is not difficult for Afghanistan to win against a team like UAE. Afghanistan players are very experienced in T20 format
UAE has to victory the match because Afghanistan has victory one match and if UAE loses this match then it will not be able to go to the semi finals of this league and their run rate is also low due to which it is difficult for them to victory till the end. Afghanistan is playing very well at the second position and it has failed Pakistan in one match and in yesterday match Pakistan has achieved a very good victory against UAE. Afghanistan batsmen have scored 73 runs in the first 10 overs and if they bat similarly well in the next over then this victory will become very difficult for UAE. UAE bowlers are not playing hard and if they achieve an easy target then it will be easy for them to victory.
I expected Afghanistan to score around 180. But Afghanistan managed to give a target of 171 runs. Arsenal lost only 4 wickets. They should have batted aggressively after 10 overs and tried to score big.
UAE's two openers are performing brilliantly. UAE scored 41 runs in 4 overs without losing any wickets. This is amazing. Alishan Sharafu
managed to score 17 runs in 10 balls. And Muhammad Waseem's score is 23 in 14 balls.
If Afghanistan's bowlers cannot take wickets quickly, they will be under pressure. They need to take at least 2 openers' wickets in the first 8 overs. It will be a huge shame for Afghanistan if they lose this match somehow.
