    45.2
    1
    Simi Singh to Asghar
    length, down the pads, and he works it off his pads towards deep square leg, and that's the series win for Afghanistan
    45.1
    0
    Simi Singh to Asghar
    length, driven towards short mid-wicket
    44.6
    0
    McCarthy to Rahmat
    yorker, jammed out and back towards the bowler
    44.5
    0
    McCarthy to Rahmat
    full, driven towards mid-on
    44.4
    1
    McCarthy to Asghar
    fuller, around off, and he looks to flick this away. Hits it on to his leg, and it drops to the off side, and they pinch a single
    44.3
    4
    McCarthy to Asghar
    six to finish? No, this time it drops just short of the deep backward square leg fence. Still short from McCarthy and these are easy pickings for Asghar
    44.2
    6
    McCarthy to Asghar
    short again, and this is even bigger than the previous one! Just not enough pace either on this wicket or from McCarthy's action. Afghan goes back and smacks this a bit more fine this time. Almost ends up treading on to his stumps, but does well to keep himself away from them
    44.1
    6
    McCarthy to Asghar
    short, and he gets into a good position early, moving across his crease and deep inside it. Swatted away through the mid-wicket region. No attempt to keep it down
    43.6
    0
    Simi Singh to Rahmat
    works this towards short mid-wicket. They consider a single, but good that they don't follow through with that, as the fielder moves in swiftly
    43.5
    0
    Simi Singh to Rahmat
    bowled from closer to the stumps, around off, and he sweeps from a length, but cannot beat short fine leg
    43.4
    1
    Simi Singh to Asghar
    length, driven down the ground towards long on
    43.3
    0
    Simi Singh to Asghar
    length, jabs down on it with a defensive prod
    43.2
    0
    Simi Singh to Asghar
    looks to sweep one from outside off. Struck on the pads, but impact would have been outside off
    43.1
    0
    Simi Singh to Asghar
    length, goes back to work it off his pads towards square leg
    42.6
    1
    McCarthy to Asghar
    now Asghar gets dropped! Short ball, looks for the short-arm jab, and gets it up the air. McCarthy can only shake his head in disbelief as deep backward square leg moves in swiftly, but cannot latch on. Perhaps the setting sun getting into the fielder's eyes?
    42.5
    1
    McCarthy to Rahmat
    dropped at point! Back of a length again from McCarthy, and he looks to guide this over point, but cannot keep it down. It's a diving attempt from Tector there, away to his right, but he cannot hold on to it
    42.4
    2
    McCarthy to Rahmat
    drives a length ball, which has offered him some width outside off, towards deep point. Easy two
    42.3
    4
    McCarthy to Rahmat
    fifth ODI century for Rahmat Shah! It's a length ball, but just strays on to the pads. He hangs back and just gets a decent enough tickle down to fine leg. Takes his helmet off, and acknowledges the polite applause of his teammates. Dropped a bit of a dolly right at the death when Afghanistan were fielding, but he's been quite flawless in this second innings
    42.2
    1
    McCarthy to Asghar
    short, pulled away in front of square to the sweeper in the deep
    42.1
    0
    McCarthy to Asghar
    defends a length ball, angling into him, towards cover
