Naveen-ul-Haq to Mustafizur Rahman, no run
OUT! LBW! AFGHANISTAN HAVE DONE IT! THEY HAVE TURNED THE TABLES UPSIDE DOWN FROM HAVING BACKS AGAINST WALL! They came, they dreamt, they executed and they got the desired result! They defeated the Kiwis, executed an audacious heist against the Aussies and now they are through by defeating Bangladesh in the most historic manner! The celebrations begin from Kabul to Kandahar as Afghanistan advances to the semifinals for the first ever time in the T20 World Cup history. A glorious day for Afghanistan cricket. Naveen-ul-Haq spears in a fuller-length delivery which angles back into the batter from the off stump line, Mustafizur Rahman is rooted in the crease and is trapped on the front foot and gets beaten on the inside edge. The ball takes the whisker of the inside edge and pings his front pad. Mustafizur Rahman goes upstairs. UltraEdge comes up and shows that there's no nick when the ball passes through the inside edge. Ball Tracking confirms three reds. OUT it is and Afghanistan creates history by winning this game by 8 runs by DLS method and this means, Australia is officially eliminated from this ICC Men's T20 World Cup.
Naveen-ul-Haq to Taskin Ahmed, no run
OUT! CHOPPED ON! NAVEEN-UL-HAQ, YOU BEAUTY! Afghanistan is just a solitary wicket now from the qualification! Naveen-ul-Haq bowls a deceptive slower one from around the stumps and pitches it around off, and nips back it a bit as well. It keeps low and skids through quickly. Taskin Ahmed is deep in his crease and swipes it across the line but gets a thickish inside edge that dismantles the furniture. A sea of raw emotions in the Afghan camp! This game has swung to and fro keeping us all on the edge of the seats.
Naveen-ul-Haq to Litton Das, 1 run
PUT DOWN! Naveen-ul-Haq gets his right hand to the ball but can't keep a hold of it on his follow-through. A genuine chance gone begging. Full and outside off, Litton Das doesn't read the ball, and looks to drive downtown but plays it early and chips it straight back to Naveen-ul-Haq who reaches for it but eventually shells it and parries it around the mid on region for a single.

Noor Ahmad to Litton Das, no run
A loud appeal for LBW but turned down. Noor Ahmad is begging to the umpire and they do go upstairs and why not? Noor lands it right in front of the stumps and on a fuller length that turns a shade into the batter after pitching. Litton Das is drawn forward and goes for a front foot defence and wears it on the front pad. UltraEdge shows that there's no bat involved but dramatically Ball Tracking shows that the impact and the wickets are on umpire's call.

Naveen-ul-Haq to Shakib Al Hasan, no run
OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Naveen-ul-Haq manages to hang on and he's got two in two! Slower delivery, floated up at the stumps, Shakib Al Hasan leans on and looks to flick across the line but closes the bat's face way too early. The ball goes off the leading edge and back to the bowler who shows good reflexes on the follow-through and after parrying the ball on the first attempt, keeps his cool to snaffle it on the second attempt. Afghan players are all pumped and why not? Naveen-ul-Haq has just provided an inroad for his team and is on a hat-trick now. Bangladesh is a spot of bother now.

NOT OUT! Both teams have now lost an early review. Naveen-ul-Haq goes wider on the crease and angles it back in on a good length and into the pads. Litton Das gets squared up a bit and the ball crashes into the pads before rolling away. The batters pick up a leg bye and the appeal for the LBW is turned down. Rashid Khan is forced into reviewing this one and in the end, Ball Tracking shows that it would have missed leg stump.

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Tanzid Hasan, no run
OUT! LBW! A lovely inswinger from Fazalhaq Farooqi and after a prolonged appeal, the umpire's finger goes up for the LBW. Tanzid Hasan has a long chat with Litton Das and reviews it at the last second. Getting to the delivery, Farooqi bowls it on a good length around off stump and gets the ball to just nip back in quickly after pitching. Tanzid with a wild hoick across the line doesn't get even near it. Nothing on UltraEdge and Ball Tracking shows three reds and the onfield decision is upheld. Farooqi now has the most wickets ever in a single T20 World Cup as he picks up his 16th of the tournament.

Oh, dear! The ball seems to have died down on its way to the keeper and struck Rahmanullah Gurbaz on the knee cap. Slower one, pitched up a bit and outside off, Litton Das looks to drive but is beaten and the ball rolls off the keeper to backward point as they get a bye. The physio is out to have a look and hopefully, Gurbaz is fine.
Naveen-ul-Haq to Litton Das, 6 runs
SIX! Wow, that has been crunched! Wider on the crease and angled back in on a fuller length around off. Litton Das is quick to walk past the off stump and whacks the ball well beyond deep mid-wicket for 91-meter biggie.
