    Wardlaw to Shapoor
    he's done it! Shapoor has the vicroty and races off to one corner of the ground in his trademark celebration. The Scots are heartbroken, Shenwari is delirously happy! He wanted a yorker, ends up with a low full toss on leg stump and it's been picked off. Shapoor had stopped running as soon as the ball beat the short fine leg fielder. Spread his hands out wide and fell onto the turn in joy! What a match! What a performance! What theatre! This is how good the World Cup can be! This is how good it should be!

    Wardlaw to Shapoor
    slower ball ball on middle and leg, Shapoor nudges it into the leg side and sets off. There's no single there though and Machan bounds in and delivers an underarm throw, but it misses its mark! Whoooa, the tension is getting to me!! Time for a break for Shapoor as he gets some magic spray on his left hand

    Wardlaw to Hamid
    curling yorker on off stump and it gets a thick outside edge to deep third man. Hamid did very well to protect his stumps. They're nailing their death overs discipline here, both teams
    48.6
    4
    Berrington to Shapoor
    he's found the boundary at fine leg! This is why the extra ball matters and Shapoor got inside the line of the short slower ball and pulled it away very cheekily. Goes on a long, animated monologue with Hamid about the shot as they hug each other and contemplate....

    Berrington to Shapoor
    looks for the wide yorker, but Berrington has slid it wider than the tram lines allow. Pressure mounts, pressures shows
    48.5
    1
    Berrington to Hamid
    good length ball on middle and leg, looks for a flick but only lobs off the thigh pads towards point. And the keeper races after it himself. Brilliant commitment, but can't stop the single

    Berrington to Hamid
    fuller and slower outside off, tapped into the covers. Dot ball, precious dot ball
    48.3

    Berrington to Shapoor
    and once it is pushed through point, up goes the roar and Afghanistan have their 200. They need 11 more but Scotland are in no mood to give them. What a match!
    48.2
    1
    Berrington to Hamid
    shortish and outside off, eased to deep third man for a single early in the over
    48.1
    1
    Berrington to Shapoor
    back of a length on middle, Shapoor goes right back in his crease and clips it to deep square leg and then has a chat with his partner
    47.6
    1
    Evans to Shapoor
    goes back and punches a back of a length delivery through point. Looked quite capable that time
    47.5
    1
    Evans to Hamid
    back of a length on off stump, tapped into the point region and Hamid has to sent Shapoor back. Makes it in time before the direct hit from Berrington, but the ricochet allows the overthrow
    47.5
    1
    Evans to Hamid
    banged in short with a great big grunt from Evans and that means it's sailed too far over the head of the batsman. Wide called for height
    47.4
    1
    Evans to Shapoor
    full on leg stump, Shapoor moves across and clips it through midwicket and gives the strike to the better batsman
    47.3

    Evans to Shapoor
    sliding down leg and they go up in unison for an appeal. Umpire shakes his head and Mommsen goes for a review. Is this it? Nope, impact was off the thigh pad before Cross dived to his right and pouched a great take
    47.2
    0
    Evans to Shapoor
    shortish and outside off, Shapoor flails and misses. Shenwari can't watch
    47.1
    1
    Evans to Hamid
    back of a length and outside off, slid down to third man. Lots of those and the odd boundary is what's needed
    46.6

    Haq to Shapoor
    tossed up on middle and Shapoor blocks
    46.5
    W
    Haq to Samiullah Shinwari
    length ball on middle and Shenwari has picked out deep midwicket! Haq goes mad, Shenwari is on his knees in despair! What an innings! What a performance! What passion! And spare a thought for Davey on the boundary, who kept calm and pouched a good, pressure catch. But wait... the third umpire is asking him to wait. He's checking if Scotland have adhered to the field restrictions. You're allowed four outside the circle. How many did Scotland have? They had the right people and Shenwari has to walk and he does so while counting the men on the deep in his mind
    46.4
    6
    Haq to Samiullah Shinwari
    flighted into the slot and Shenwari has launched it over the square leg boundary and sinks onto his knees again. He's 96 not out and he's got every scenario rolling in his head. Will hte pressure be too much? Its only 19 off 20
