KARACHI: Opener Ryan Recillton on Friday rooted South Africa in Afghanistan by 107 runs in the Champions Trophy in Karachi.
Rickelon sixes to anchor 106 balls 103 and six to anchor South Africa and six in the Group B match at the National Stadium. South Africa’s sharp attack on Kagisu Rabda (3-36), Vyan Molder (2-36) and Lingi Nagi (2-56) then sacked Afghanistan with highly financially financially supported Afghanistan in 43.3 overs.
South Africa eliminated the threat of Afghanistan’s slow bowlers with star league spinner Rashid Khan for 59 runs in their 10 overs. Rahmat Shah made an umbrella before being the last man with 92-ball 90 for Afghanistan and a six with a six.
Chasing a great target, Afghanistan was in dire need of a rapid start, but by the 10th over, only 10 for 17 and Ibrahim Zadran, Flab Bent openers Rehmanullah Grubaz was in dire need of 10 and Ibrahim Zadran. Sidiqullah Atal fell for 16 runs while captain Hashmatullah Shahidi was scored without a goal because Afghanistan was left at 50-4.
Shah and Uzmatullah Umarzai (18), Rabda and Marco Johnson, who got rid of Muhammad Nabi, had already reached the score to 89, attacked to effectively eliminate Afghanistan’s hopes. Rashid Khan briefly entertained the mob with a Quick Fire 13 ball 18, which included six and three boundaries.
Earlier, Rickelon captain Tamba Bumoma (58), Rope Wan Der Dawson (52) and Eden Markram (52 Not Out) helped them to bring South Africa to a solid tomorrow after winning the toss and won the toss. – The prophet, who ended with 2-51, dismissed opener Tony de Zurzi and provided initial progress with his first ball, caught in the mid-on for 11.
After that, Rickelon and Bomoma added 129 for the second wicket as Afghanistan was working on the field. Baomoma targeted five boundaries in his 76 -ball knocking before he was eventually caught a short delivery of the prophet so that hundreds of Afghan fans could be given some happiness in the Veril crowded.
Reckilton, which has two Tests in his name, but only 91 Best in ODIs, completed his first white ball century with a single. After two runs, however, he left, unfortunately suffering.
Rashid came down from the pitch to run, Recklton was forced to change fast and the bowler shot the ball to wicketkeeper Rehmanullah Gorbaz and sank back into his crease. Recklton came to make his ground, but the replay showed that his bat was raised a bit, so when the Gerzar flogged the bail, it was not in the crease. Van Dare Dawson surrendered two sixes and three boundaries in his 46 ball before falling from the spinner Noor Ahmed in the 43rd over.
South Africa was left near Markram to pass through 300 marks, which did not put six boundaries in 36 balls and a six in 36 balls, which helped Proteas add 50 runs in the last five overs –
