Pak vs Afg T20 Clash | Tri Series Highlights ft. Rashid, Nawaz, Shaheen & More

Just before the Asia Cup 2025, Pakistan started the Tri Series not with a win, but with a big win. Yes, the first match of the Tri Series between Pakistan, Afghanistan and the UAE. And in this first match, Pakistan faces Afghanistan.

And it was believed that Afghanistan would be able to defeat Pakistan easily in this match. Because Pakistan’s current performance is not very good. But in this match, Pakistan did what the fans of Afghanistan or the fans of Pakistan did not expect from them.

What happened in the match? Let’s talk about that a little earlier. In Pakistan, while playing first, there are 182 runs on the loss of 7 wickets in 20 overs. 182 runs on conditions like Sharjah, where we can say that it is difficult to make a run many times.

The game moves a bit quickly at times and also feels a bit slow in other parts. But here, Pakistan should be praised the most. Salman Agha, their captain, who played a strong run of 53 runs in 36 balls.

He hit 3 fours and 3 sixes. And during this time, Salman Agha’s strike rate was more than 147. Along with Salman Agha, Muhammad Dawas was also praised.

He made 21 runs on 11 balls. He hit 2 fours and 2 sixes. His strike rate was around 191.

At the end, Faheem Ashraf scored 14 runs from 5 balls. He hit 1 four and 1 six. His strike rate was 280.

And let’s talk about the players of Afghanistan. Everyone tried. Faizal Afarooqi proved to be a little expensive.

Fareen Ahmed proved to be very expensive. And Azmatullah Omarzai proved to be very expensive. Apart from that, the performance of the players was good.

Some of the players were expensive. But some of the players tried to stop the score. But when 182 runs are made and you have Pakistan and Afghanistan in front, it was a big task for Afghanistan to go up to 183 runs.

It was a huge task. If we talk about the start, the start of Afghanistan was okay. Then Ibrahim Zadran couldn’t do much.

He couldn’t do much. After that, Rahman Ullah Gurbaz and Siddha Kul Atal played very well for the second wicket. They reached the team’s score from 17 for 1 to 68 for 1. And it seemed that Afghanistan would do what we were all hoping for.

That Afghanistan would come, Pakistan would come, and go ahead in the try series. And reach the top in the points table. But that didn’t happen.

We have to praise Pakistan’s players. We have to praise Shahenshah Faridi and Mohammad Nawaz. We have to praise Harish Rauf and Sufian Mukeem.

The wickets were slowing down and the game was stopping. The spin was helping the players. But Harish Rauf’s two wickets were very important.

If we talk about one time, Afghanistan’s score was 68 for 1. Afghanistan’s score was 97 for 7. Afghanistan lost six wickets for just 30 runs. The score was 68 for 1 and the score was 97 for 7. That means you were able to score 29 runs and lost 6 wickets. Afghanistan was completely behind in this game.

Afghanistan was completely behind in this game. And there was nothing left to do in this game for Afghanistan. We should commend Pakistan for how they began the try series before the Ishra Cup.

And Afghanistan is not a very weak team. Afghanistan’s team is not as weak as UAE and Oman. That has also been a good side.

They did well in the T20 World Cup. Their players play in the IPL, PSL and all the big leagues. But Pakistan had a strong hold in this game.

Pakistan played very well in the T20 World Cup. Pakistan has beaten Afghanistan many times in this try series. They will help you in the try series in the future.

But along with that, the Asia Cup is coming up. Pakistan is preparing to face the Indian team in the Asia Cup. I think their confidence will definitely help them there.

Afghanistan played a competition against Pakistan. And here, Pakistan completely destroyed Afghanistan. And they won the try series in the first match.
