Chasing just 92 for victory, New Zealand scrambled to 90\/8 after the Afghanistan bowlers, led by Allah Mohammad Ghazanfar (3\/29), gave them a difficult time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
With two runs needed and two wickets left, Naseer Khan ran in to bowl the first ball of his fifth over but stopped before delivering to turn around and run out Schreuder.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The non-striker had taken a couple of steps outside the crease, allowing Naseer Khan to pull off the dismissal and put Afghanistan a wicket away from a win.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIt is in the rules and that\u2019s why I did it,\u201d Naseer Khan said after the match, when asked about the run out.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The Afghanistan captain also noted that Schreuder was leaving the non-striker\u2019s crease \u201cevery ball\u201d before the dismissal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
New Zealand beat Afghanistan by one wicket in a thrilling game in East London<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Despite the late wicket, Matt Rowe \u2013 who had shone with five wickets in 16 balls in the first innings \u2013 hit the winning runs off the next ball to take New Zealand home in what was a thrilling one-wicket win.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rowe, who won the Aramco Player of the Match award, was pragmatic on the dismissal when asked post-match, saying: \"Well I guess cricket's cricket and what's going to happen is going to happen. So, oh well.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
This wasn't the first instance of a non-striker run-out in the U19 World Cup.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
In the 2016 edition in Bangladesh, West Indies bowler Keemo Paul ran out Zimbabwe's last man Richard Ngarava at the non-striker's end to clinch a thrilling two-run win for his side.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
In 2020, Afghanistan's Noor Ahmad dismissed Pakistan Muhammad Hurraira at the non-striker's and more recently, in the inaugural U19 Women's World Cup last year, Pakistan's Zaib-Un-Nisa dismissed Rwanda's Shakila Niyomuhoza with this mode of dismissal. <\/p>\r\n\r\n", "image": "https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2024\/01\/u19-world-cup-non-striker-run-out-the-last-wicket-in-thrilling-new-zealand-afghanistan-clash.jpeg", "alt_img": "U19 World Cup: Non-striker run-out the last wicket in thrilling New Zealand-Afghanistan clash", "alt_title": "U19 World Cup: Non-striker run-out the last wicket in thrilling New Zealand-Afghanistan clash", "image1": null, "video": null, "seo_title": "U19 World Cup: Non-striker Run-out The Last Wicket In Thrilling New Zealand-Afghanistan Clash On Cricketnmore", "seo_desc": "U19 World Cup: Non-striker Run-out The Last Wicket In Thrilling New Zealand-Afghanistan Clash, ICC U19 Men: There was excitement and tension in the ICC U19 Men's Cricket World Cup 2024 match between New.", "seo_keywords": "New Zealand, Photo Credit, ICC U19 Men, Cricket World Cup, Buffalo Park, Naseer Khan, Ewald Schreuder, Allah Mohammad Ghazanfar, The Afghanistan, East London, Matt Rowe, Aramco Player, U19 World Cup, West Indies, Keemo Paul, Richard Ngarava, Noor Ahmad", "tag": "", "tagging": "New Zealand, Photo Credit, ICC U19 Men, Cricket World Cup, Buffalo Park, Naseer Khan, Ewald Schreuder, Allah Mohammad Ghazanfar, The Afghanistan, East London, Matt Rowe, Aramco Player, U19 World Cup, West Indies, Keemo Paul, Richard Ngarava, Noor Ahmad", "status": "1", "img_rpt": "0", "google": "1", "standout": "0", "edapps": "0", "pulse": "0", "no_index": "0", "feed": "0", "fixture": null, "slug": "u19-world-cup-non-striker-run-out-the-last-wicket-in-thrilling-new-zealand-afghanistan-clash", "user_id": "0", "read_count": "0", "ians_date": null, "ians_time": null, "server_time": null, "trash": "0", "view_count": "937", "page_break": "0", "instant_articles": "1", "auto_link": "1", "created": "2024-01-23 22:48:04", "updated": "2024-01-23 22:48:04", "img_from": "Image Source: IANS", "img_source": null, "schedule_publish": null, "news_keywords": "New Zealand, Photo Credit, ICC U19 Men, Cricket World Cup, Buffalo Park, Naseer Khan, Ewald Schreuder, Allah Mohammad Ghazanfar, The Afghanistan, East London, Matt Rowe, Aramco Player, U19 World Cup, West Indies, Keemo Paul, Richard Ngarava, Noor Ahmad", "livescore_text": null, "livescore_link": null, "btn_text": null, "resend_feed": "1", "google_feed": "1", "read_more": "0", "posted_by": "23", "jio_date": "2024-01-23 22:48:04", "scheduled": "0", "news_now": "1", "breaking_news": "1", "google_date": null, "featured": "0", "pred_match_id": null, "article_content_type": null, "link": "https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-news\/u19-world-cup-non-striker-run-out-the-last-wicket-in-thrilling-new-zealand-afghanistan-clash-136683" }
