The UAE won the toss and elected to bat, posting a total of 126/9 in their allotted 20 overs. Skipper Muhammad Waseem top-scored with 27 runs, while Naveen-ul-Haq starred for Afghanistan with an impressive four-wicket haul. Leg-spinner Qais Ahmad and all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai also picked up 3 and 2 wickets, respectively.
