Afghanistan 116-6 (16 ovs) vs India 159-5

Zaheer is back for a new spell and he starts from round the wicket. He bowls from wide of the crease but Nabi hits him on the up inside out for a huge six over the covers.

He flicks the next ball to deep midwicket for a couple.

Closer look at the replays indicate that Shafiqullah was unlucky to be given out leg before wicket as he got an inside edge before the ball struck his pads.

Nabi then smashes a full delivery down the ground and a diving stop from Raina keeps it down to two runs.

He then makes most off a full toss from Zaheer clipping it round the corner past the short fine leg fielder for a four and then gets a single to long-on.

Another single off the final delivery makes it 16 runs from that over as Afghanistan reach 116 for six after 16 overs, needing 44 runs from four overs for victory.

Nabi has blasted his way to 30 from 15 balls, with the help of two fours and two sixes.
