Mohammad Shahzad is seeing his team-mates fall apart from the other end. 82/4! Asghar Afghan b Kuldeep Yadav 0(1)
15.2
Kuldeep Yadav to Shahidi, out Stumped!! Three down! Superb ball, superb stumping and Afghanistan's leading run-getter this season is gone for a duck. He came into this match on the back of three successive fifties, but he doesn't trouble the scorers today. What a brilliant dismissal!
