Afg vs Aus

With 9 wickets in hand, it seemed that Afghanistan would make their score very big. But, after the first wicket, the momentum shifted towards the Australian bowlers.

For Australia, Pat Cummins took a hat-trick in the match. He became the first bowler to take back-to-back hat-tricks against Afghanistan in T20 cricket and in the T20 World Cup. Cummins was the most successful bowler for Australia with 3 wickets for 28 runs in 4 overs. Jumpa also took 2 wickets.

Now Australia had a target of 149 runs in front of them, which did not seem very difficult considering their batting strength. But then, the identity of the Afghanistan team is also its bowling. Afghanistan's bowlers posed a good challenge to the Australian batsmen, which they could not overcome and fell 21 runs short of the target. Glenn Maxwell top-scored for Australia with 59. None of the other batsmen could score more than 15 runs.

Gulbadin Naib and Naveen-ul-Haq were Afghanistan's two most successful bowlers, sharing 7 Australian wickets between them. Gulbadin took 4 wickets for 20 runs in 4 overs, while Naveen also took 3 wickets for 20 runs in 4 overs. Rashid, Nabi and Omerzai took 1-1 wickets each.
