South Africa vs Afghanistan, 13th Match, Group D, ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 - Player Highlights

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Marco Jansen, no run, right in the blockhole on off, Jansen squeezes it out to short cover

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Marco Jansen, SIX, goes pace off and disappears down the ground! Maybe that's why he was trying to look for the yorkers. Short of length just outside off, slower one and Jansen plays an incredible shot down the ground off the back foot. What a hit!

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Marco Jansen, 2 runs, again the attempted yorker, it's overpitched outside off and Jansen smears it through point. Back for the second easily

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Marco Jansen, FOUR, Farooqi needs to relook what he's trying to do. Again goes for the yorker, bowls it in the slot and Jansen creams it through extra cover. The ball is stopping in the surface and pace off might be a better option

Fazalhaq Farooqi to David Miller, 1 run, nails the yorker this time and Miller squeezes it to long-on

Fazalhaq Farooqi to David Miller, FOUR, that's not a good delivery. Pace off into the surface is working well but Farooqi tries to look for a yorker and ends up giving a full toss. Effortlessly whipped wide of long-on for four

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Dewald Brevis, 1 run, short of length across off, an off-cutter and Brevis punches it to deep point

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Dewald Brevis, SIX, the top edge flies all the way! Unlucky for Farooqi! Good short ball across off, gets big on Brevis as he goes for the pull and the edge travels over short fine

Fazalhaq Farooqi to David Miller, 1 run, short of length into the body, pace off, Miller is early through the pull and drags it to deep backward square

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Dewald Brevis, 1 run, short of length across off, Brevis hops in the crease, gets on top of the bounce and punches it to deep point

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Dewald Brevis, no run, good height on the bouncer, it's angling away outside off and Brevis bails out of his attempted ramp. Might've expected a wide for height but the umpire doesn't think so

Fazalhaq Farooqi to David Miller, 1 run, slower short ball, Miller pulls gently to deep midwicket

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Ryan Rickelton, no run, fuller length delivery outside off - Rickelton picks out short extra-cover with the drive

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Ryan Rickelton, no run, short of a good length and well wide of off, steered off the back-foot to cover-point

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Ryan Rickelton, no run, beauty, on a good length and nipping away from that channel just outside off - brings Rickelton forward and the shape takes the ball past his outside edge

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Aiden Markram, out Caught by Nabi!! Chance and taken at mid-off - change of pace and that does the trick, was a slower ball at 112 kmph - drops onto Markram and he's way too early into the lofted drive, goes through with the sliced drive, got it right off the toe-end and scoops it up towards mid-off - Nabi gets under, waits on the ball and takes it with ease. An early strike and AFG will be happy with this start. Aiden Markram c Nabi b Fazalhaq Farooqi 5(8) [4s-1]

Fazalhaq Farooqi to de Kock, 1 run, an inside edge now and the ball rolls past the leg-stump, short of a good length and just outside off - de Kock was rooted to the crease as he poked forward, skews an under-edge and the ball goes past his stumps

Fazalhaq Farooqi to de Kock, no run, beaten, fuller length delivery and a hint of swing back into the left-hander - de Kock is lured into the drive, plays outside the line and is beaten on the inside edge

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Aiden Markram, FOUR, lovely shot, overpitched and wide of off - Markram leans into the drive and finds the gap wide of cover for a boundary

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Aiden Markram, no run, beaten, Gurbaz went up in appeal, but he gets no support from his bowler. Pitched up and pushed across the right-hander, Markram leans across into an expansive drive and is beaten by the angle

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Aiden Markram, no run, short of a good length and at the stumps - Markram prods across and defends it to the on-side

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Aiden Markram, no run, on a good length and around the off-stump line, defended back at the bowler

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Aiden Markram, no run, nicely bowled, a hint of swing back into the right-hander and it nearly went through the bat-pad gap - was full and just outside off, drawing Markram into an expansive drive, an inside edge onto the pad

Fazalhaq Farooqi to Aiden Markram, no run, short of a good length and just outside off - Markram gets right behind the line in defence
