And so the game draws to a tame conclusion with Afghanistan claiming an impressive victory by 25 runs. A solid, if unspectacular performance there by Afghanistan and they will no doubt want to build on the foundation laid today. The pitch was a bowler's graveyard and did not offer much assistance in the way of swing, seam or spin. These two teams were fairly evenly matched so it was tough to predict the outcome. That being said Afghanistan proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory.
