Afghanistan v Ireland, Neutral venue, ICCIC Cup 21-24 Jan
by Zat on Wed 20 Jan 2010, 13:57
To be played at Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium.
Afghanistan squad
Asghar Stanikzai, Dawlat Ahmadzai, Hameed Hasan, Karim Sadiq, Mirwais Ashraf, Mohammad Nabi, Mohammad Shahzad†, Noor Ali, Nowroz Mangal*, Obaidullah Kunari, Raees Ahmadzai, Samiullah Shenwari, Shafiqullah, Shapoor Zadran
Ireland squad
AC Botha, P Connell, AR Cusack, PS Eaglestone, DT Johnston, NG Jones, GE Kidd, JF Mooney, KJ O'Brien, NJ O'Brien†, WTS Porterfield*, AR White, GC Wilson
How will Afghanistan go in the longer form of the game? Can they surprise Ireland? Will a couple of good results see them rushed into Test status alongside Bangladesh?

a couple of years ago Afghans were claiming that they have bowlers who are as quick as the Pakistani bowlers.

And if they get someone to make the lunchtime appeal for victims of all wars, maybe Heals can be prevailed upon to bring his violin along? ...

This match deserves more attention.
Ireland batted through a day and a bit to manage 405. William Porterfield top scoring with 78. Samiullah Shenwari took 4 for 75 off 27 overs.
Afghanistan in reply 3/263 after 74 overs at stumps on day 2. Afghan captain Nowroz Mangal scored 80.
Looks like a battle for first-innings points.

A basic question: is the Afghanistan side made up of genuine Afghanis?
