Both these teams had squared off against each other at the same venue where Afghanistan A had won the toss and elected to bowl. Being put to bat, Afghanistan did not start well, losing their first wicket in the very first over of the game. Soon, they lost another wicket and looked to be in trouble. But then the pair of Shoaib Khan and Zeeshan Maqsood made an important partnership worth 80 runs. The rest of the team could not contribute much as they kept coming and going from the other end. They were soon bowled out for 152 runs.

In reply, Afghanistan were no different, as they lost their first wicket in the very first over of their innings. But what came later made things further difficult for them as they lost wickets in a bunch. Within no time, they had already lost five wickets while being able to score just 22 runs. Just when it seemed like they were done and dusted for the match, their lower-middle order came back to the game in style as they made formidable partnerships and smashed bowlers around for fun. However, losing wickets upfront, they still lost the match by seven runs.
