New Delhi:Star spinner Rashid Khan claimed six wickets as Afghanistan secured a comfortable 92-run win over Ireland in the second ODI of the five-match series at Bready Cricket Club.
Notably, the first match of the series was called off due to rain and it affected the second contest as well.
Returning from injury, Paul Stirling won the toss and elected to bowl first, while newly-appointed Afghanistan skipper Rahmat Shah wasn’t too unhappy.
Rashid ended that resistance by dismissing Calitz, which triggered a collapse that saw Ireland lose their final four wickets for nine runs.
Rashid claimed three of those wickets to complete figures of 6-34 and put Afghanistan 1-0 ahead in the series.
