Super over scores: Afghanistan 16/1 equaled India 16/1 in the first super over. India 11/2 defeated Afghanistan 1/2 by 10 runs in the second super over.

What a wonderful cricket match!

And to think, this was a dead rubber at first glance. The game’s dramatic beats were reminiscent of Tarantino, with Afghanistan cutting India to 22-4 and the skill of Rohit and Rinku to Gulbadin’s powerful hitting and Virat’s fielding. It was a work of fiction.

The outcome seems hardly significant.It was all about the feelings today.

Nor do we even include the Super Overs in this. It all came down to the margins. Had Nabi and Gurbaz not gone the additional distance, Afghanistan would have lost the first game. After witnessing Rohit’s run-out in the second Super Over, the choice to replace Rinku with Rohit on the final ball seems like a brilliant move, even though it felt a little bit excessive at the moment.

“I was given the ball as soon as we saw two right-handers come out. Avesh and I were asked to be ready to bowl the [second] Super Over.” Initially, the plan was to bowl slightly behind the crease, behind of length. It feels excellent to gain assurance in stopping runs in a Super Over victory. I’m in a nice groove and it feels fantastic. I’ll attempt to improve from here.

To maintain my intention, I continued to speak with Rinku. During important games, we might find ourselves in scenarios like this when we’d be 30 for 4. With the pressure, it was an advantageous position to be in and it was crucial to bat deep and long.
