<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="afghanistan-vs-australia-match-review">Afghanistan vs Australia Match Review</h2>



<p>Kangaroo captain Mitchell Marsh won the toss and invited Afghanistan to bat first. Batting first, Afghanistan scored 148 runs at the loss of six wickets in 20 overs. Opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran kept the target in check from the team's side, Gurbaz scored 60 runs in 49 balls with the help of four fours and four sixes, while Zadran scored 51 runs in 48 balls.</p>



<p>After the dismissal of both openers, the team was seen struggling. Afghanistan lost their first wicket at 118 runs, and even after that, the team could score only 148 runs. In bowling from Australia's side, ODI captain Pat Cummins took three wickets for 28 runs in four overs. Right-arm legbreak spinner Adam Zampa took two wickets while Stoinis took one wicket.</p>



<p>The performance of the Australian openers who came out to chase the target of 148 was not very good. Travis Head got out on 0, and David Warner got out on 3 runs. But then Glenn Maxwell came between the victories of Australia and Afghanistan. Maxwell not only handled the Australian innings but also hit big shots against the Afghan bowlers. He played an innings of 59 runs in just 41 balls with the help of six fours and three sixes.</p>

<p>Maxwell had almost taken the match away from the Afghanistan team, then Afghan all-rounder Gulbadin Naib entered. Afghanistan's winning hero Gulbadin Naib took 4 important wickets for just 20 runs in four overs. He sealed the match for Afghanistan by taking the wickets of Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Tim David and Pat Cummins.</p>

<p>Australia, one of the strong contenders for T20 World Cup 2024, was all-out in 19.2 overs against Afghanistan. If Australia had managed to defeat Afghanistan today, India and Australia would have qualified for the semi-finals. But now that the tournament is fully open, Afghanistan's qualification hopes are still alive.</p>

<p><span>Afghanistan won the toss and opted to bat first. But it wasn't the kind of start that they would've wanted.

NZ vs PAK: The fifth T20I between New Zealand and Pakistan will be played on 26 March at Wellington’s Sky Stadium, which has hosted 22 T20Is—10 won batting first, 12 chasing. The average first-innings score is 153, but high totals like NZ’s 219/6 and successful chases like Australia’s 216 show it can be a batting-friendly ground. Key performers here include Martin Guptill (453 runs) and Ish Sodhi (17 wickets). With chasing slightly favored and spinners often influential, the match could hinge on whether Pakistan’s batters or New Zealand’s home advantage proves decisive.
