So that's goodbye from me, Anurag, and my partners Arjun and Dasgupta from the comm box. Do join us tomorrow for more exciting fixtures from all over the world. Good night and take care!!
Hashmatullah Shahidi gets the Man of the Match award for his 94-ball 73!
Hashmatullah Shahidi | Winning captain: "Firstly, I want to thank the almighty. It was a satisfying effort from my boys. (On team's total) Honestly, I felt we finish 20-30 runs short of what we should have finished on, but the bowlers bowled beautifully and won the game for us.
Rahmat Shah is a senior player and we expect that from him. I believe a lot in him as a player. Rashid and the bowlers bowled well but we will try to bat better than today in the next game. We have good spinners but want our batters to improve and win games in the future.
We have four in four in the Super League and want to finish this series on a high note going forward to the Zimbabwe series Now, we have four out of four wins in the ODI World Series. We want to finish the series on a high note before we head out for the Zimbabwe series.
This was my first win as a captain. It feels nice to perform well in your maiden game as a captain. Feeling better, cause this was my first match as a captain and I have gained a lot of confidence for the second game. My son wanted me to perform and this performance is for him. Honestly, the wicket was very slow and the ball was not coming on nicely, I wanted to stay till the end after assessing the situation"

Pieter Seelaar | Losing captain: "We dropped a number of chances, including Hashmatullah. There were a lots of run-out chances we missed. In the end, Rashid was too good to handle. No, not at all (Regretting decision to bowl first?) I thought the wicket was good to bat on and we had a bright start as well.
I thought pretty much all the bowlers were good for us. But unfortunately we fell short of the total. It was very cold, very windy and hopefully the conditions improve for the next game. Obviously we haven't played cricket for a while, but now we have a game under our belt (on his team's performance for the next match). We competed well, but we are here to win. It's going to be a hard-fought series, so there's a lot to look forward to."

47.6 Y Ahmadzai to F Klaassen
W Direct hit and there's your final wicket! Afghanistan have won the first ODI game comfortably. Najibullah with a fiery throw to end the game. Back of a length on the middle and leg. Klaassen swings across the line and gets an inside-edge onto the pad. The ball rolls down to point and they decide to steal a quick run. But Najibullah sprints towards the ball, picks it up quickly and has a perfect shy at the stumps towards the non strikers' end. No chance for Klaassen to make his ground..
