5.6
Sharif to Asghar Stanikzai, no run, slower one, looks to make room but gets yorked, squeezed back to the bowler
5.5
Sharif to Mohammad Shahzad, 1 run, takes it on the full and hits it straight to midwicket again, was three paces down the pitch when he made contact, that allowed him to get across for the single
5.4
Sharif to Asghar Stanikzai, 1 run, full toss, swung away to the man at midwicket, Mommsen dived full length to his left to stop that, have to say he has saved three runs
5.3
Sharif to Mohammad Shahzad, 1 run, on the shorter side, shapes to pull but doesn't get hold of it, rolls off the toe end to deep midwicket
5.2
Sharif to Asghar Stanikzai, 1 run, driven through the line to mid-off, the fielder there was a little too deep
 

Raff: "These two squads put on an exciting contest at last year's ODI World Cup. Let's hope today marks another such contest. It would be great to see associate members developing strong rivalries amongst each other -- especially since the Test-playing nations seem none-too-interested in scheduling matches against them."

 
5.1
Sharif to Mohammad Shahzad, 1 run, gentle tap to mid-on for a quick single, they're milking it easily
 

Here's Sharif with his medium pace. Last over of the Powerplay
