Afghanistan were in serious trouble when they lost their sixth wicket during their chase of the 274-run target in the third One-Day International (ODI) against United Arab Emirates (UAE) at the ICC Global Cricket Academy in Dubai on Tuesday. Samiullah Shenwari was the man dismissed on a score of 19 off 34 deliveries, getting caught and bowled off the bowling of Rohan Mustafa.
UAE earlier finished on a total of 273 for the loss of five wickets from their quota of 50 overs. Skipper Khurram Khan once again shone with the bat, remaining unbeaten on 85 from 80 balls. Mohammad Shahzad was the other star of the UAE innings, with a knock of 62 from 59 balls. Dawlat Zadran was the pick among the Afghan bowlers with figures of two for 51. UAE are currently leading the four-match series 2-0, and a win in the third encounter would help them clinch the series.
