Afghanistan's Azmatullah Finds Form in Dominant Victory over India
India's Virat Kohli Falls Short in Mid-On Misfire
In a thrilling encounter at the iconic M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, Afghanistan's Najibullah Zadran and Azmatullah Omarzai led their team to a resounding victory over India in the third T20I of the Afghanistan in India 2023/24 series.
Zadran and Omarzai's Stellar Performance
Zadran, the Afghanistan captain, led from the front with a blistering innings of 63 runs off just 34 deliveries, which included four towering sixes. He was ably supported by Omarzai, who chipped in with an impressive 45 runs. Their partnership laid the foundation for Afghanistan's imposing total of 173/5.
