Indranil Mondal: "Interesting to see Afgans have not picked Hamid Hassan today. He is one of the consistent bowler for them and is called in the side after a long time. You can't keep such player out when he is in the squad."

 
2.6
Evans to Mohammad Shahzad, 1 run, third man into the picture again as Shahzad dabs it late
2.5
Evans to Noor Ali Zadran, OUT, this time, the third man, who was square, has come into the picture. It was short and wide, should have been clattered over point. But Noor Ali slashed too hard, only managed a thick edge which carried to Davey, who caught it well. He had to run in a couple of paces from the ropes, and he did it without a fuss. That should boost Scotland, for it was turning out to be an aggressive start from Afghanistan

Noor Ali Zadran c Davey b Evans 17 (12b 2x4 1x6) SR: 141.66
2.4
Evans to Noor Ali Zadran, FOUR, cleverly done. Uses the pace of the bowler and angles it past the vacant slip cordon. The trick was to play it late, which he did. Third man was too square
2.3
Evans to Noor Ali Zadran, no run, this time, he crunches the short ball straight to point
2.2
Evans to Noor Ali Zadran, no run, width on offer, scoring opportunity missed. He slashed at that one, played too early, beaten
2.1
Evans to Noor Ali Zadran, no run, hits the deck hard from wide of the crease, lands it on off, punched to cover
