The Afghan pacers initially gave tough time to the Pakistani batters and restricted the scores in the second match of the three-match T20I series at Sharjah ground on Saturday night.


Sharjah: Left-hand batsman Imad Wasim stayed on the crease to help Pakistan set a reasonable target of 130 runs in the 2nd T20I match against Afghanistan at Sharjah ground on Sunday night.

The Afghanistan bowlers gave real tough time in the beginning as they restricted the batters from scoring.
The partnership between Shadab Khan and Imad Wasim paved the way for Pakistan to come out of the pressure. Shadab contributed 32 runs off 25 balls. The fall of Saim Ayub, Muhammad Haris and Abdullah Shafique put Pakistan under pressure.
