have you ever seen anything like this? They should have just waited for the last ball

Looks like Azmat, Gurbaz and Nabi are the three batters. Nabi will come in if there's a wicket. Out walk Azmat and Gurbaz.

Ball 1 - Ngidi to Azmat, FOUR! A low full-toss on off, Azmat stays deep, opens the face of the bat and squeezes it between backward point and short third man. Right into the gap

Ball 2 - Ngidi to Azmat, SIX! And Azmat has cleared the leap of Jansen at long-off. It's a slower-ball off-cutter and full outside off, Azmat gets forward and lofts, Jansen uses all his height and leaps, but it clears his outstretched right hand

Ball 3 - Ngidi to Azmat, 1 run, low full-toss outside off, Azmat gets forward and drives straight to the fielder at sweeper cover. Just one
Wed, Feb 11, '26 at 4:12 AM
Ball 4 - Ngidi to Gurbaz, 1 run, full and the slower-ball off-cutter just outside off, Gurbaz gets forward to drive to long-on and it's just one

Ball 5 - Ngidi to Azmat, four Brilliant from Rabada at sweeper cover, he runs and dives to his left and has it in the grasp. But when he falls, the ball slips away, just falls inside the cushions. Rolls over it. So four. It's a length delivery outside off, maybe the slower-ball off-cutter again, Azmat slashes it and Rabada did so well, took it two-handed as he was airborne. He wanted to flick the ball back in, as he knew he was going over. But the ball rolls over the cushions

Ball 6 - Ngidi to Azmat, 1 run, pinpoint yorker on off. Azmat digs it out to short fine and it's just one. They don't even attempt to run the 2nd.
Afghanistan make 17

. Miller is one batter. Brevis is the 2nd. They are doing some situps before they walk out to the middle. Still not sure who the 3rd batter for them is.

Ball 1 - Farooqi to Miller, 1 run, Miller has missed out. A full-toss and waist-high outside off, he gets forward and mistimes the loft to long-on. Just one

Ball 2 - Farooqi to Brevis, SIX! What a huge blow. The leg-side boundary is the bigger one but Brevis has nailed the pull. From round the wicket, short outside off, he goes on the back foot and smashes it 97m over the deep mid-wicket boundary. That is some hit

Ball 3 - Farooqi to Brevis, OUT!Caught by Gurbaz. The slower-ball bouncer, the off-cutter and dug in short, Brevis is deceived and is way too early into the pull, the top-edge loops to the left of Gurbaz who takes it easily. Afghanistan roar and the plan has come off. Superb stuff from Farooqi
