Where were you hiding Hamed Arabzai? Two massive hits from the No.11 batter and Ariana were close but not close enough. Zazai opened the bowling and he proved to be the game-changer in this match. He dismissed the openers cheaply in the first over to give Jonkoping an upper hand inside the powerplay. But Ayubi and Zamin Zazai kept the scoreboard ticking and kept Ariana in the contest.
Ariana were going at a good pace but the needless run-outs in the middle period cost them the game. We witnessed three run-outs in quick succession and that swung the momentum back in Jonkoping's favour. The boundaries dried up in the back end and when 21 needed from the last over, Hamed Arabazai smacked two maximums in the final two deliveries. Ariana CC came agonizingly close but failed to get the job done.
That's the end of our coverage until next time, this is Pragadeesh signing off on behalf of my co-commentator, Pradeep. Goodbye
