T20 WC: Omarzai's 4-fer Helps Afghanistan Restrict UAE To 160/9
T20 World Cup: Afghanistan’s bowlers, led by Azmatullah Omarzai’s 4-15, ensured that UAE’s promising middle‑order surge did not translate into a commanding total as they restricted the Gulf side to 160/9 in their 20 overs in the Group D clash of 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Monday.
On a pitch which had a bit of moisture, Omarzai’s incisive spell, where he varied his line and length very well, dismantled the lower half of the batting card, while Mujeeb Ur Rahman chipped in with two wickets and Rashid Khan bowled a tidy spell to keep the UAE to a par score.
After early setbacks, the UAE’s innings was steadied by a fluent third‑wicket stand of 84 runs between Alishan Sharafu (40) and Sohaib Khan (68). The duo countered spin with measured aggression and gave the innings a sense of momentum.
