Afghanistan and Ireland will lock horns once again in the second T20I of the three-match series on March 17 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Sharjah. The Paul Stirling-led side emerged victorious in the first match by a hefty margin of 38 runs and currently leads the series by 1-0 margin.
In the 1st T20I, Rashid Khan invited Ireland to bat first after winning the toss and the ace bowling lineup of Afghanistan did well as they restricted the visitors to just 149 in 20 overs. Skipper Rashid Khan scalped three wickets for just 19 runs and the debutant Nangeyalia Kharote too displayed emphatic performance, finishing with figures of 2/16.
However, the host's batting line-up was rattled by the young leg-spinner Benjamin White, who picked four Afghan batters for just 20 runs and helped Ireland bundle out the home team at just 111 runs with 10 balls to spare. Only Mohammad Ishaq was able to weather the storm of Irish bowlers.
