The life and death match of Afghans in Sharjah was swinging like a pendulum. Pakistan lost the recognized batsmen before coming down to bat for the target of 130 runs. There was only Asif Ali. However, Farid said something when he dismissed Asif on the fifth ball of the 19th over of the match. Hearing that, Asif turned around and pretended to hit him with a bat. The two went into a fight. Meanwhile, other players and umpires calmed down the situation. In the end, Pakistan won this exciting match with two sixes by Nasim Shah.
