, 4 news, 2 views
It was the last two balls of the sixth over when Nawaz got the better of Darwish Rasooli and Azmatullah Omarzai in back-to-back deliveries. While on the first ball of this next over, he stumped out Ibrahim Zadran for a duck to become the first Pakistan men's spinner to complete a T20I hat-trick. He became the third Pakistani bowler after Faheem Ashraf and Mohammad Hasnain to achieve the feat in men's T20Is.
He added Karim Jannat and Rashid Khan's scalps to his kitty, which helped him complete a T20I fifer and join an elite list.
Meanwhile, it was a forgettable night for Afghanistan with the bat as they failed to put up any fight in a moderate chase and lost the series.
