APPEAL! Zia ur-Rahman Sharifi to Jaskaran Singh Buttar. Reverse Swing-In half volley, middle stump on the front foot Slog, hit pad for no runs, fielded by Gurbaz, appeal made for L.B.W. The LBW decision is overturned on the final ball, but it doesn't stop Afghanistan wrapping up a dominant 82 run victory after a clinical performance. Afghanistan pick up their second win of the tournament but it's not enough to progress, whilst Canada finish winless. After losing three wickets in the powerplay, Canada were always well behind in the chase, and lost regular wickets, only the partnership between Harsh Thaker and Saad Bin Zafar making any impression. Mohammad Nabi then finished proceedings to finish with exception figures of four wickets for seven runs, Rashid Khan also taking two. Ibrahim Zadran is the Player of the Match
