Sediqullah Atal wins the Player of the Series award. He says the teammate supported him in this series. Tells he tries to be consistent. Mentions it was a good pitch to bat and had good bounce on it.
AM Ghazanfar wins the Player of the Match award.
...Presentation...
In reply, their openers put up another good stand which almost took them to the win. They did lose a couple of wickets but Shahidi and Shah ensured they finished the game without losing any wickets. The bowlers have been the main architect for Afghanistan throughout the series so far. Fazalhaq Farooqi in the second game. AM Ghazanfar and Rashid Khan today and Azmatullah Omarzai throughout the three games.
Another comprehensive win for the visitors and they have won the series 2-0 without breaking a sweat! The seal was actually dealt in the first innings when they bowled Zimbabwe out for a very low score.
