    Men's ODI WC: Farooqi, Rahman Star With Ball As Afghans Restrict Sri Lanka To 241

    By IANS News October 30, 2023 • 18:56 PM View: 1044
    Mujeeb Ur Rahman: Left-arm pacer Fazalhaq Farooqi claimed 4-34 and Mujeeb Ur Rahman bagged 2-38 as Afghanistan came up with another superb bowling performance to bundle out Sri Lanka for 241 in Match 30 of the ICC Men's ODI World Cup 2023 and lined up themselves for causing another upset.

    Electing to bowl first, Farooqi made the breakthrough for Afghanistan when he trapped Dimuth Karunaratne in front of the wicket for 15 as Sri Lanka lost their first wicket with 22 runs on the board.

    Pathum Nissanka (46) and skipper Kusal Mendis (39) raised 62 runs for the second wicket at a slow pace as Sri Lanka reached 84/1 in the 19th over when Nissanka feathered a superb back-of-a-length delivery by Azmatullah Qmarzi to Rahmanullah Gurbaz at backward point. The wicket stemmed the flow of runs and Afghanistan slowly took control of the innings.
