Earlier in the game, it was Andrew Balbirnie who won the toss and put Afghanistan into bat first. Afghanistan got off to a steady start getting to 41 runs in the powerplay. It was Rahmanullah Gurbaz who turned it on after the powerplay as he got to his 4th T20I fifty. He was the first man to go for 53 off 35 when the score was 90 in 11.2 overs. Hazratullah Zazai was the next batter dismissed for 39 off 40 balls as he struggled with his timing.
Ibrahim Zadran continued the tempo with his 36 off 22 balls before being dismissed in the 18th over of the innings.

Little has been the pick of the bowlers with 2-29 in 4 overs. A wicket for
Gareth Delany and a wicket for debutant Fionn Hand as well. Graham Hume went
wicketless and was expensive as well. Delany and Campher bowled but not without
the desired result.
A win for Afghanistan over Ireland by 22 runs to reduce the series margin to 2-1 in favor of Ireland. Stay tuned for the post-match presentation ceremony that comes your way next.
