Sent in to bat, Zadran fired a 56-ball 95 not out, studded with seven boundaries and five sixes, and shared a 95-run stand for the third wicket with Sediqullah Atal (44 off 32 balls) to make quite an impression in their last match of the tournament. Zadran provided a solid start for his side, combining effectively with opening partner Rahmanullah Gurbaz (30 off 20 balls) as the pair stitched together a fluent 47-run opening stand. Brief scores: Afghanistan 200 for 4 in 20 overs (Rahmanullah Gurbaz 30, Ibrahim Zadran 95 not out, Sediqullah Atal 44; Jaskaran Singh 3/52).
