Bulawayo: Afghanistan made history
on Saturday when they became the
first Associate nation to defeat a
Test-playing country in a one-day
series with a comprehensive 73-run
win over Zimbabwe.
The victory gave Afghanistan a 3-2
series win after the two sides had
shared the first four games at the
Queen's Sports Club.
Chasing a 246-run winning target,
Zimbabwe were skittled out for 172 in
the 45th over despite Sean Williams
making a fine 102 off 124 balls with
three boundaries and four sixes.
Fast bowler Dawlat Zadran finished
with a career best 4-22 in his 10
overs.
Earlier, opener Noor Ali Zadran made
54 and Mohammad Nabi, who hit a
maiden century in the second match
of the series, chipped in with 53 as
Afghanistan reached 245-9 in their
50 overs. Source: http://m.sports.ndtv.com/cricket/ne...abwe-in-5th-odi-to-clinch-historic-series-win
